Be careful. If you do it the way the can tells you to it is very likely that you will flood it. If it were me I would figure out how to run it trough the engine but dont let it die. You can run it trough the vacuum line to the brake booster. 1/3 in the oil 1/3 trough the intake 1/3 in the gastank. And make sure you are in a well vintelated area "no really".

And drive it for about 15 miles after you do it to make sure it is all out.

I`ve been using SeaFoam for years in everything I own. It`s the best decarb formula anywhere, bar none. I use it like an ATF treatment, ya know, a couple oz in the spark plug holes, turm it 1/3 turn same and again. I let it sit all night, then I turn the engine with the starter without the plugs in, then I put the plugs in and start it. You might call the fire department before you start it though or your neighbors will. Then take it out and run it like ya stole it!

Do the rest like stated above.

Right behind the master cylinder.

I better go into a little better detail. There is a rubber vacuum line doing to the booster "that is the part the master cylinder bolts to". Take the line off and start the car up. It will idle pretty high now because you have generated a vacuum leak. Pour the desired amount of seafome into a plastic cup and have someone rev the car and keep it running. Slowly stick the hose into the seafoam and suck it out like a vacuum cleaner. When the cup is empty hook the hose back up and drive the car until the smoke clears. I have found that this works alot better when the car is hot so drive it for a while before you do this. Good luck

I used it through the brake booster. To keep the car running i just got a rag and used the throttle cable.
