Sputtering when accelerating

Try running a can of Seafoam through the tank or unhook the brake vaccum and stick it in the can of seafoam. It will clean the fuel system completely, but it will smoke like crazy while its working. Dont worry its just all the built up gunk burning off. However, you will have to change the spark plugs immediatly after you do this. But it most likely time any way.
