I wouldn't give someone advice on how to do something that would mess their car up. I've done it 2 or 3 times on my car. As well as helped other people...
you said you have a friend rev the motor up while you suck up the sea foam, have him turn the key off. that's what i do.

and i use the line on the brake booster. suck up a little bit of the can and have a buddy shut the car off, then put 1/3 in the gas tank and 1/3 in the crankcase.

Every line that is hooked to that tree goes directly to the intake. The brake boost line is the easiest to use because it is longer and in the open.

yea, good point. I beat the snot out of this thing. Nitrous must clean it out too


Ive never had the ball's to put Seafoam in the crankcase though. Always thought it would eat up the gasket's and make the thing leak even more then it already doe's! or hurt the motor somehow.
