how do you run the seafoam through the PCV, i know its the hose going from the valve cover to the throttle body, but which end do you disconnect and run it through??? also does this method work better than the brake booster way or the oil filler tube way????

i would like to know as well, and i know there is a plug going in to the rear driver sode valve cover. Where all do I put the seafoam, cause I usually run it through the brake booster line.

I actually unplugged the line going to the intake on the passengaer side. Hooked up a small rubber line from that nipple on the side ran it into the bottle. Had some one start the car keep it idleing untill empty. Shut car off and waited 5min like bottle states. Than started and bugs beware. White smoke the whole neighbor hood. Good luck

well i know how to run it through the brake booster hose but im not sure how you can run it through the PCV on the passenger side. so Khris99s you unplugged the PCV line going from the valve cover to the throttle body??? or did you unplug the one on the back of the engine???

i believe the brake booster goes into the back of the intake so it would be even distributed through the intake ports, and therefore go to bothsides of the engine, and the oil filler tube way gets to the oil pump and cleans out any slug possibly.
