Seafoam (Don't Lock I have specific question)

[01MaroIL]

Ok this is not a how do you use it or what does it do thread because i have searched and found these answers like a good board member.

But, now i am trying to remove the brake booster line and cant get it off.

My question is are there any tips to getting this off? And what part am i removing, the L apapter or the line itself (i assume the line).

I cant seem to get this thing off and it is not very accessible especially being right handed. No leverage.

Thank you.

I have a tool that looks like an ice pick with a curved end. Works very good for getting under the hose to break it free.

wow that is scary when that brake booster line comes off.

Now i am waiting 15 mins before i start the car.

My prediction is that there will be a little smoke, but not much. I dont think my engine is too dirty [img]smile.gif[/img]

That's what everyone says! :D

wow talk about a quick pick me up. Car feels a lot better. Definatley smoother and throttle response feels better.

It didnt smoke too much, but then again it is dark out [img]smile.gif[/img] . But there was definatley smoke around. When i took it for a drive it continued to smoke some more.

One question i have though is can i do this again soon or will it damage the engine. Just thinking i would want to get all the carbon deposits out.

Another happy customer. It was first time doing it and it wasnt very hard. I would reccomend this to anyone because im not that knowledgeable when it comes to cars.

Thanks mods for not deleting/locking

Now I (a bad board member) have a question. What were you doing exactly? I'm guessing cleaning the intake or something, if so, where did you find all the info on how to do it?

Thanks,
Mr. Bad

basically, when u suck it in thru the brake booster, you get it all in the intake equally to all the cylinders. it'll clean out the intake manifold and valves and combustion chamber. when u put it in the gas tank it cleans out the fuel section. when u put it in the oil it cleans out all the underside of the engine (everything the oil will touch basically). basically it dissolves all the carbon deposits.
