ok, tried first pic, you're right not enough suction.
pulled brake boost hose off, sucks it right out of the can, just kinda
tilt it a little and let it suck it up. Car wants to almost die as you do
it but just slow down and then add a bit more.
soaking now...............

Well couldnt tell any big difference, but engine was running pretty damn smooth
to begin with.
Did get a good amount of smoke out the back, but was more white color than black
Put some in the tank too.

the end closest to the arrow in the picture is where you pull hose off connector
you have to wiggle and pry a little with flat screw driver, but it will come off.
when you start engine back up you will hear good suction sound coming from it.

Regarding the plugs, there's no need to change them after a SeaFoam treatment unless they needed changing before. It will clean the plugs off. I did a Ranger once, and it was running rougher after the treatment than before. Turns out the plugs were so worn that the carbon on the tips was helping the gap. Once it was cleaned off there was almost no tip left. It should also be noted that if the engine is clean inside, there will be little to no smoke. If there's a lot of carbon build up, it'll look like a smoke factory. Make sure you're outside.

The B/B line is connected to the vacumn tree on the firewall.
wont that seafoam get into the vacumn tree and hurt it?
or into the other vacumn acessories (speed control, egr, hvac)?
It seems better to use the canister purge vacumn line, which is directly connected to manifold vacumn.
What do you all think?
oh, and do you have to change your oil after the seafoam treatment?
