Thats also popular to do with seafoam.

its nice when u have your own setup like me

On the festiva I just pull a vacuum line of the firewall ( purge valve maybe ?? ) and stick the line in a bottle of seafoam. Its close and handy for reaching the throttle.

i use the booster box vacuum line

I've used both Seafoam and B-12. I like Seafoam but B-12 is WAY cheaper. I usually try to find a vacuum port close to the throttle body and I made this little setup to drop into the bottle and the ball valve allows you to meter the flow so you don't kill the engine.




We used to use a Wynn's 3 part system in one of the shops I worked at. It came with 3 bottles; you would use half of the first one with compressed air to wash down the intake tract. Then run the second bottle through using the siphon tube on a vacuum port. After that we'd finish up running the first bottle through the port. The 3rd bottle was added to the tank.

My "shadetree" version of this system is to use a can of carb cleaner to wash down the intake tract. Run a bottle of B-12 through the vacuum port, and then add a can of Seafoam to the tank

Chemical delivery setups

I liked both of your fluid delivery setups. Wonder where to get the parts to make up one of my own. Maybe others would like to make up one of there own. How about both of you doing a write up with photos of your set ups and where you got the parts?

^^ You should be able to get the parts from and hardware store. It's nothing fancy, just a 1/4" tube, a 90* elbow, a ball valve, and a barb fitting. Mine just looks fancy because I used all stainless because I had alot of it available
