Default seafoam question

I've seen this mentioned a good bit and will be gearing up to do the 60k service on my '04, probably towards the end of summer. What is this stuff and how are you using it to clean induction? Thanks

Actually I found the link, quite helpful. Here it is for others that may be unware: http://www.seafoamsales.com/motorTuneUpTechGas.htm. My questions about using it on our Disco's are:
1. Do you open the throttle body and just pour it in while running?
2. As far as crank case goes, add to oil and then run it prior to oil change or at any time?

If you want to call me, I would be glad to walk you thru the process. Here is a list I put together as a guide in doing a 60K, may come iin handy.

This is the parts list for a 60,000 mile service the way I do it.
1 Oil filter , K&N 3001
1 Air filter
1 Transmission filter kit
6 Qts of engine oil
12 Qts of ATF
7 Qts of 80/90W gear oil
2 Qts of Brake fluid
2 Qts of synthetic Power steering fluid
2 Gallons of OAT, orange coolant
1 Bottle of Lucas Power Steering additive
1 Bottle of Lucas Transmission additive
1 Can of Spray Carb Spray
1 Can Of Brake cleaner
8 Spark Plugs, I use Bosch Platium Plus 4's
1 Set of Magnacor 8mm plug wires
1 Serpentine belt if not yet replaced
2 Bottles of SeaFoam


60,000 Mile Service
Bleed the brakes
Flush and change the power steering fluid adding one bottle of additive
Service the tranny adding one bottle of additive
Flush the coolant system
Do an engine flush before changing the oil
Do an induction cleaning
Clean the throttle body
Add fuel additive to full gas tank
Change both of the diffs fluid
Change the t/case oil
Replace the plugs and wires
Replace the air filter
Lube all the drive shaft grease fitting including the 2 slip shafts
Do full inspection of brakes, hoses, bushings etc.

Hopefully I didn't leave anything out.
Mike
