    I'm convinced MoH is what you get when BC2 and MW2 have a baby together.

    I found this on a Protege forum...I've never put Seafoam any where but the gas tank and crank case...does this guy know what he's talking about?

    Yep pooring it in the pcv line is a good way to clean #1 & #4 cylinder in the lower plenum. If You want to do this, and I highly recammend doing so, but do it the right way. I've done this with a 5 gas exaughst analizer and it cleans things up dramaticly and brings back some ponies. through the pcv vacumm line dosen't do squat!!!! look at where those lines go to. you won't clean the upper plennum or any part of cylinder 2 & 3 or any part of the VICS butterflys. On any vehical the vacume line closest to the throtle body(but isn't connected to the TB) is the best line cause it will clean more (or all depending on the manifold). On our Proteges its the same line for the 1.6l 1.8l and 2.0l its the brake booster hose. It plugs in the middle of the manifold so it will spread the cleaner evenly through the cylinders. Have someone rev the car to 2000-35000 rpms the engine will want to die but keep reven to keep it alive. suck about 20 oz. into the manifold and kill the motor. (must get VICS to open to clean those runners so try to keep it below 3000 then after 50% of the fluid is gone keep VICS open above 3000-3500 rpm max) unless you put a carberator on your car you won't hydrolock the motor. the motor needs to sit for 10-15 minuets to alow the cleaner to soak into the carbon. Try to start the motor then and pump the gas pedal. if at any time white steam (its not smoke so chill) comes out its 1000% normal. rev the motor for about 3 min. and let it idle for 5 min. then take it out for a drive to clear out the sytem. Basicly what you've just done is steam clean the inside of the motor. Works freakin awsome. after it stops steaming (with the Engine off) reset the ECU by unpluging both + and - terminals and hold them together for 30 seconds. this drains all eletricity from the system and resets the ECU much faster then waiting 1 hr. or all night. I've used sea foam before and its ok but GM Top End Clean works the best. Its about 6-10 dollars at any chevy dealer. it works in Geos BMWs Mazdas F1 race cars or any 4stroke engine. Ignore the GM logo.

    To do it right, what you wanna do is buy one can of the seafoam. Get some plastic cups or something and separate it into three parts.

    Cup one... Pour this into your gas tank when its about half full.

    Cup two... Pour this into your crank case.

    Cup three... Do as he was describing and have the engine suck it up through either the pcv or brake booster line. (Make sure the engine is warmed up when your doing this. After it sucks it all up (slowly or it will stall before you can get it all in), let the engine stall out, then let the car sit (turned off) for about 15 minutes.

    Go make a taco...

    Now, start the car up. It may take a few turns before it actually starts up. Let it idle for about a minute or two then hold the accelerator down to about 4,000rpms, and redline it once in awhile. This will smoke the hell out of your neighbors so do it somewhere where you have room.

    Once the smoke starts to die down a little, take a drive for 5 to 10 miles, and drive it fairly hard.

    Now you need to reset your ECU (you'll get a check engine light and such because of all the misfires). So theres alot of ways, easiest is to just disconeccy the battery cables for about 10 minutes.

    Now, change your oil! Most people dont do this, but with the seafoam in your crank case your oil is now thinned out, plus all the gunk it cleaned off inside there is sitting in your oil pan and filter. If you really want to do this right (first off add some MOA when you add the seafoam, thats optional though) drain all the oil then drop your oil pan and clean it out, but ya dont have to.

    Thanks, is it ok to do with a full tank of gas? I just filled up yesterday...or do I need to wait a couple days?

    Also, check out the template so far...I still don't think I like the look of the content boxes

    Yeah, anywhere from a half tank to a full tank really. Below that and its hard on engine and injectors supposedly.

    and im gonna do a FULL backup before I mess with anything on the server!

    and the brake booster hose is the big hose running from around the master cylinder to the manifold correct?
