I want to seafoam my car but can't really figure out which end of the hose I need to use. The diagram on the hood doesn't help that much. Could someone point it out in this picture please?? Thanks
I used Seafoam in that little intake manifold stub in the upper center of your picture.....worked wonders, cleaned the intake valves off so well it looked like a top engine clean was done! I did go through 3 bottles though!
Nevermind, figured it out. Disconnect the other end of the hose boxed in yellow and slowly poured it in while at 2k rpm. Sure put out a lot of smoke The car kinda sounds cleaner and crisper too. Haven't had a chance to take it on the roads to see if I feel a difference but we'll see!
let us know how it performs after, good or bad. Was there an issue, reason for procedure? Been thinking about doing this but just haven't built up the courage yet...

Throttle feels more responsive and sounds more crisper. The idle seems smoother too. No issue. I just felt like doing that since I'm cleaning my MAF and filters. Why not clean everything else too? It was easy. I had my gf hold the rev at 2k rpm while I slowly poured it into the hose. Since the hose is really stiff and short, you're gonna want to disconnect the end closest to the throttle body first then the other end and then hook the first end back up.

I put it in right after the throttle body. Verified it was a vacuum line by disconnecting and put a receipt up to it to see if it sucked.
I used it in the red box in your picture above......I always wondered that it was supposed to be used for. Now I just use specifically for cleaning applications for my intake valves!!!
