I think you're supposed to use the line that runs to the brake booster.

I used the brake booster, it was the easiest accessible one to jam a funnel into.

Pour it slow until the last little bit, then dump it in and try to stall the engine out. If it doesn't stall, turn the car off quick to keep the Seafoam where it need to be.

Makes your car smoke like a som bitch!








But in a good way and it only smokes for a little while.

It cleans injectors, intake, oil pan, and carbon deposits. I just did it to my car, it was such a good feeling seeing all that crud getting blasted out of my engine and onto the highway.
