deep creep cleaning question

I saw on one of the threads the other day to give your intake a deep creep treatment. I did everything, except the thread said to unhook a vaccuum tee going into the intake and suck up about 4oz into the intake. That should clean all the parts of the intake that are otherwise inaccesable. Can someone who knows this post a pic of the tee in question?

You can use the Brake Booster vacuum line.

I'm not sure of the tee they're refering too although I've seen in mentioned in the forums before. When I clean out mine, I pull the vacuum line from the brake booster and shoot it in thru there.

Somewhere on your intake manifold, or plenum, if you prefer, there is a vacum tree with various sized rubber llines attached to it. Follw the largest of these, which should be you brake booster line, unhook it from the booster and shoot the "treatment" down that vacum line with engine vacum applied. This will suck the spooge into the intake and clean it up as advertised.

Good Luck!

Cheers!

Mike
