kool then couldnt i just take the other side of the hose off and funnel in the seafoam instead of trying to suck it through the hose or would that be too much at one time?

either way, as long as it's done slowly... might even be better to funnel it, more control of how much goes in than just letting it suck it up...

no see ur trying to suck the seafoam up in there where it can drop it into all the cylinder...otherwise ur just putting it down in the crankcase

I think he means funnel it into the intake side of that vacuum line... not the valve covers...

N29468 · August 28th, 2008, 06:14 PM

Yea in that end. What just put it in slowly..How slow?

Get a cup or somethin and put the seafoam in that. then let the hose suck it in. The car will let you know if your goin too fast cause itll shake an sputter like its about to stall and die

WLJohnson05 · August 28th, 2008, 07:08 PM

o ok yea i get ya now.

with the engine running just slowly funnel it as in dont just dump and run, put it in some and then put in a lil more, etc. that should get it done pretty good

this is the best way IMO. it helps to have another person help inside the car to keep the car from dying too

or just open the throttle manually.. all it takes is a thumb

N29468 · August 28th, 2008, 07:28 PM

Yea ill probly just do it with a cup it seems more sensible

sea foam is great but it can burn super hot and fuck your plugs. DO NOT put it in your crank case unless you plan on changing your oil within 500 miles. You cant leave that shit in there for 3k, its not oil. its meant to clean the sludge out.
