Sea Foam

i bet super autobacs has it

Sea Foam

where can I find "Sea Foam" in the LA/Orange County area (So. Cali. of course =0))?

I need to do some throttle body / intake manifold / engine / injector cleaning.

nevermind...found some at Napa Auto Parts ($5.99)

$4.99 at our autozone

where is the brake booster line? ..94 corolla if that helps

You're probably not going to need all this info., but just in case anyone else wants to know.

In your engine, do you know that big black circular thing that's attached to your firewall...it's on the driver's side; and the master cylinder is connected to it. The master cylinder is the white/clear reservoir that you look at to check your brake fluid level. Well the big black object is the "brake booster". On the upper left side of the brake booster, there's a black hose that's attached it. That's the hose they're talking about.

BE CAREFUL.

You want to pull this off when the engine's on, but as soon as you pull it off the idle will get extremely rough. Just put your thumb over the opening of the hose to "normalize" the idle. The vacuum through this hose is strong. Slowly pour the Sea Foam into the hose, regulate the amount flowing out of the can by positioning your thumb over the top of the opening of the can. I poured about 1/2 the can in there.

FYI...after you pour this stuff in and go for your first drive....KNOW THIS.

You will be shooting tons of white smoke through your exhaust for at least 2-3 miles, if not more. I remember seeing the neighborhood dissappear behind me as I drove through it. Kinda like a thick fog. So you might want to do this in an area where there's no one....or at least no one you know.

question, i've heard of people running this straight through their injectors, How would you do this?

what would happen if your removed the brake booster vaccum line while the engine was on? what about doing it through pcv valve?

Straight through the injectors? Hmmm...maybe if you take it to a shop they can hook your injectors up to a machine and run some sea foam through it....like the website says.

Or

Just dump a can into the fuel tank and gradually run the sea foam through the injectors.

I just said, the idle would become eratic...it would sputter...shake the entire car vigorously.<br />

You could do it through the pcv valve, but why go through the hassle of unscrewing that when all you have to do is pull off the brake booster hose?
