Sea Foam

I finally tracked some Sea Foam down in my area and am about to do the treatment. The can suggests pouring 1/3 of the can to a vacuum source that "will feed all cylinders" Is the standard place the vacuum hose going to the brake booster? This is a 1995 F150 302 motor. This is to be done with a warm engine running. Stop engine - wait 15 minutes and restart - then watch the neighbouhood fill with smoke. Does this sound like the right procedure?

if you're gonna use the brake booster, pour it in slowly. Take a minute to pour the stuff in. Don't stick the hose into the can. It will suck it up too fast and you run the risk of hydro locking the engine. Its probably a low risk but there's no reason to risk it.
