Find the black hose running from the driver side valve cover to the top of the intake manifold. There's only 1 hose on the valve cover, so it shouldn't be hard to find. Pull it out of the valve cover and suck the seafoam in slowly while the engine is running.

When I tried to first sea foam my mustang I put it in a different hose...
The hose I put it in was on the passanger side, it was a hose coming from the upper air intake to like the bottom part of the engine.. I just slipped off the hose on the air intake side and it was a 'vacuum' and I put 1/3 sea foam there, the engine didn't do a lot of wanting to die and I shut it off and when I started it 5 minutes later barely any smoke came out.. so which tube did i put it into?

First off why did you delete your post? I knew I should have quoted it.

And secondly, I wasnt "coming to the rescue" you tool. We were chatting on gchat and he had to show me what a dumbshit you were being again. I rarely get into any type of conflict with anyone on this forum but you seem to just can't help yourself from trying to act like you know everything. Your a post whore and it annoys me.

1.) gas take
2.) oil
3.) vacuum lines

You can put the seafoam in any vacuum hose that leads to the upper intake manifold. To be sure you have a vacuum hose, pull one off and put your finger on the end of it, if it sucks then its probably a vacuum hose. Be careful though because your brake booster will do the same thing.

EDIT: No hard feelings man I understand that it seems like were dogging BDS for no reason, but trust us....He deserves it.

Your brake booster doesn't connect to the air intake does it?
If that's not the brake booster what exactly did I put it into??

No, Just don't pour it into that hose because if I remember correctly it only feeds half of the cylinders. Where as a vacuum hose will feed them all.

exactly.
the point of using the vacuum hose that comes out the driver side cover is because it goes into the top and spreads throughout all the cylinders.

by the way the instructions for seafoam are right on the can...its pretty straightforward

Is there a thread with a picture showing the exact picture of the tube I HAVE to put it in? One said to put it into the PCV located on drivers side by mainifold and so on but then the picture shows where the brake booster is, in the same area the PCV was explained to be..
Sorry I'm not very familiar with engines, and there are a lot of hoses big and small.
Thanks for all helping
