I had the day off of work and was home alone most of the day. I decides to get some seafoam and try the vacc line thing I have heard alot about. I slowly let the engine suck it in and while I was waiting I decided to replace all the rubber vacc lines as well. Holy crap that stuff works wonders! My engine is so damn quiet I can barely hear it running and the butt dyno says the engine is much happier now. Sad to say, my tires are now pissed because I can chirp em real easy now. replacing vacc lines helped too, I found out the line to my trans was rotted away. now it shifts alot better and feels more crisp.

The Seafoam was used as a combustion chamber cleaner. it breaks up the carbon in the intake, valves, and cylinders. The results: Smoother idle, better throttle response, cleaner emissions, better MPG, and a good feeling knowing my engine is clean inside and out

Oh, Here is the link to their website. good stuff!
