you ran it through a vac line to your intake and then you let it sit right? You should let it sit about 5 minutes and then start er up. Make sure you only use about a third of the can though.
and five0fm, sea foam is an engine cleaner type deal, you can run it through your intake, gast tank, and engine oil, don't run it too long in the oil though. It seems to work pretty well imo. When I ran it through my intake it smoked like a bastard, infact my neighbor called the cops. I also ran it in the engine oil for about 500 miles and it the oil was pitch black when it came out. It could just be in my head but the car seemed to run smoother afterwards.

It was more the car minus the engine (however, it was sitting on a stand about 10 feet away, waiting to be rebuilt) GT500 KR referres to the car, which came with the 428 CJ(correct me if thats wrong) engine, same as the 69/70 machs.

yeah, although i may not have done it right, i disconnected it from the BB, but it went to liek a distribution block, that went to the intake, BB and the wild unknown, but i think it worked, because it did smoke a lil bit

I did this one time, I think you want to use as small a vacuum line as you can.
