    It's a large vacuum line right the the left of the master cylinder if you are standing in front of the car.

    yes. look in the engine bay, driver side. firewall. the big black round thing is your brake booster. when looking at it, the left side has a big fat vacuum hose coming off of it, THAT is your brake booster line.

    rev the engine up using the throttle body and pour it at the same time.

    use 2 people, hold revs at 2k, dump it in, then when the last of it goes in, have the person let off the pedal and it will dies, then let it sit for a 5-10 min

    I Seafoamed my GP a couple months ago, and had very little smoke come out at all. Tonight though, I decided to SeaFoam my brothers 99 Ram. Holy cow did that puppy smoke. I think I may go and Seafoam it again tmw, just to be sure that all the carbon is gone. I've seen several YouTube videos of people's vehicle's smoking after Seafoam, but I dont know if I've ever really seen one smoke as bad as what I saw tonight. A 2nd one definitely couldn't hurt anything.
