Default Please post a PIC of where to put Seafoam in.

Hi all,

After searching this forum, two others, and the internet, I can't find a single PIC of which hose to take the Seafoam into to do an induction cleaning.

I have a 98 D1, with 109k miles form a PO. It seems to have been maintained well enough, but my MPG is around 10 and I'd like to give this a try, along with a few other things.

I've found a lot of debates about induction cleaning, a lot of "it's this thing, right there, next to the other thing right there" descriptions, but not a single PIC with a friendly green circle around it.

Please, no "don't do it... put it in the tank... liquid mechanic" replies. I've done my research, I feel it's safe, and it's my fault if it all goes to hell. Help a brother out, please....

You don't know where to add the Seafoam but you've read all about induction cleaning.......uh huh. Brake vacuum booster vacuum line is where you suck the Seafoam out of the can with motor running. Buy a set of plugs before you "induction clean" otherwise motor will run like crap afterwards.

Just so you know, you can do the same thing with a jar of water, steam cleans, still bridges the plugs but it doesn't cost a dime to turn the tap on. You can also floor it when fully warmed up, does about the same thing - blows the carbon and cob webs out but doesn't smoke your spark plugs.

If you don't like my post, ignore it.......
