The one that goes directly into the side of the intake manifold neck. Good luck!

I use the GM aerosol type, and spray it right down the TB at idle.
With the liquid, do as said above.

That is what I did. Go ahead and try and stall your car out with that crap when the can starts to get low. I couldn't do it...looking back on it, I should have pulled the plug on the IAC so it would stop trying to compensate and it would have worked. If it doesn't stall, just turn the car off real quick.

Either will work, I use the one on the "neck" of the "manifold", not the throttlebody. Ive always used the aerosol since its just easier.
