So, I decided to get some Seafoam now that we sell it and clean out my engine. The generally accepted hose to use around here seems to be the brake booster so I unplug it after I start her up. Stalls. Won't stay running while unplugged so I put the hose in the can ( not all the way in, just enough for some suction. Success as she blows out some smoke out the tailpipe, slowly allowing some liquid to be sucked in. I wasn't paying attention and the hose slipped in and the suction crushed the can. Wow, didn't realize it was that powerful...

You're not the first, and you won't be the last.

Yep seen this on several occasions. I've found it easiest to just pour it into a small Solo drink cup, that allows you to angle it however you want too (except sideways :P).
