I would find the vacuum tube on the intake nearest the head and use that. The brake booster is a nice big banjo fitting that would work well and is easy to access. I was thinking of doing a Seafoam session too, but what makes you want to do one? For me, I just failed the local emissions test for NOx and one of the problems could be the EGR or carbon buildup in the engine or O2 sensors among other things. I'm just gathering info before I go out in 0 degreee weather to get the SC to pass.

PM me if you need good photos. I've got some.

I'm doing the seafoam treatment because i'm about to hit the 200,000 mile mark on the car and i don't believe it has ever been done. I hope to see some good results. I've heard nice things about seafoam and i'm hoping the car will feel like new
