Seafoamed it now it won't idle
Title says it all. I did the seafoam induction, watched it spew smoke (laughed at the people going by who gawked at it spewing smoke) it ran rough the whole time it was spewing smoke.
Now it won't idle. Just immediately dies and is running really rough.
Its a 98 by the way.

You always have to be cautious with an induction clean, but I've Seafoamed a dozen or so vehicles and never had a problem. I've seen fuel economy or running improvements in about half the cars I've done it on. It does sound like you may have used too much or poured too fast, and it may still be in the cylinders. Where did you put it in?

I put in through the brake booster vacuum intake on the manifold. I left it running more than long enough to stop smoking, it wasn't until it started smoking less that it started to run rougher.
I have been having problems before this, mainly huge power loss especially on hills without it misfiring. I knew some of the valves were gunked up, figured I would run the seafoam through it.
I could keep it running if I kept my foot on the gas. Went to start it today wouldn't even start.
