Well I have a can of seafoam and now that it's winter break I think I'm ready to try it out. I'm skeptical about the brake booster line because it won't distribute evenly over all 6 cylinders. I noticed that people have used spray bottles into the intake with the car running to evently distribute it, and that got me thinking. Couldn't I spray seafoam mixed w/ water through an intake pipe with the car running? I have plugged lines I can remove and hook up the spray bottle to it, and spray diluted seafoam directly into the intake to get distributed evenly. Wouldn't this work a lot better? Any input? Thoughts?

just use the brake booster hose and suck up the seafoam, all of it, it will clean everything fine, prepare for smoke...lots of it!

I think I know what you are talking about. But what is seafoam? A can of fuel injector cleaner works just fine. Ported vaccum is a vacuum line before the throttle body. Put the line just on the surface of the cleaner, and rev the engine while just barely dipping it into the surface.

Interesting. But this ASE master tech already doesnt like it when they claim you need it every 2000-5000 miles. Something wrong with STP or Catsrol fuel injection cleaner, which you can pick up on the shelf in any parts store in the US? It probably works, because you can clean the valve with water even. It is technique more than substance, provided it isnt something harmful to the engine.
