Its the intake valve cleaner. Spray can with the straw. It says to spray entire bottle into the intake while keeping rpms at 2k. Just kinda seems risky....

Is it this product? http://crcindustries.com/auto/?s=05319
You use it exactly the way its states.
Although it was specifically designed for direct injection engines, it works
on all FI engines. You can also call customer service at (800).272 8963
if you're still not sure.

Thanks! Just to follow up I used the seafoam spray, about half a can, and got a little smoke so it worked at least a little. Anyway the car is running very strong now. Not that it wasnt prior to the spray, but it seems to idle a little smoother now.

So how did you spray it into the intake? Did you remove the air filter and spray up through the MAF and throttle body? I've also seen where people will remove the vac line just past the throttle body and spray in through that port.
