You know once you get to the last page of that thread you get a message from Al Gore.
"You have come to the end of the internet. Please return your cable/dsl modem"

That was lame i know ;D
(Al gore invented the internet you know..... and thats a big thread about seafoam lol.)

On your passenger side of the engine, there is a "elbow" fitting coming out of the valve cover. The hose coming off of that is it. I can't remember where it goes back into the engine cause my engine is not the same anymore. But disconnect the hose from that elbow and use a small funnel to pour the Seafoam into the hose (going in the direction away from the valve head). Have the engine running, get a flathead screwdriver to prop open the throttle lever a little off of the throttle stop. This will keep your idle running a little higher so your car won't die when you pour it in. Only use half a can and only pour in a little at a time. Once you do that, if I remember correctly, shut off the car for about 10-15 minutes then start it back up and run the hell out of it till the smoke clears.

Good stuff.

Just say you need to change your oil BAD............................ I MEAN VERY BAD. I see tons of cars weekly pouring out smoke from there exhaust

I went down back roads to avoid a ticket. I live on the edge of town anyway.

I hardy got any smoke when I did it. But I did it about a month after I changed the tb and plenum.

 

[Black97GT]

just did mine again today. All went well with a mediocre smoke show :thumb:

I was going to do it but now VertTireSmoke has scared me out of it. I'm looking into the amsoil engine flush. It seems to get good reviews here.

you use a straw to get the liquid out of the bottle into the hole of the intake..duh....i acutally cut a water bottle in half and put osme seafoam in there and then put a straw in it and then put the other end in the hoel in the intake.

Guys...!!! Haven't you ever heard of "funnels"? You can get a small set of about 3 or 4 at the grocery store of various sizes from large to small. That's what I did... bought a set for my car. Maybe $5. I use the smaller one for the PCV hose and I use the larger one for my intercooler reseviour (sp?).
