Need seafoam help
I have looked at the previous posts for seafoam but I was unable to find a picture of where to connectthe vaccumn line off the manifold. If anyone could post a picture or give me a very detailed description of where it is I would appreciate it. Please somebody help me.
according to the following diagram I disconnected the brake vacuum line at location #5 and inserted a rubber tube (luckily I had one laying around that fit) I then used that rubber tube to suck up the seafoam.

I agree with Disco2Guy.
Make sure you use the whole can and suck it in slowly, turn off the engine and let it sit for 1/2 hour or more before driving it and enjoy the smoke.

I believe the additional time helps break down the carbon. If you notice no improvement, seafoam again for the perscribed 30 minutes. As Mike said, regulate the suction slowly. Good luck!

I had to do my induction cleaning at night, since there are so many cars around until ~10pm on the roads in S.F. It took driving about 8 blocks to clear the smoke leaving the exhaust. After that I hit the highway, and heard a little tapping sound for about a minute. It went away and never came back. I used the ScanGauge2 to clear the #8 misfire and rough road implausible codes. I let too much SeaFoam in at the very beginning (took a few seconds to get the right "touch") which made the truck almost stall, but I was able to keep it running the entire time.
I understand that the carbon problem (4.0L) on the valve stems was corrected by redesigning the valves. What I don't recall is what year they started using the better valves. Does anyone know?
