Look at your fuel rail. There's a fuel pressure regulator on it. Gently twist and pull that vacuum line off at the FPR while your car is running (and in park or neutral with e-brake set). Your car will have a hard time idling with that vacuum line off so you may have to open the throttle a bit. Put 1/3 of the bottle into a plastic cup. Use the vacuum from that line to suck up the SeaFoam.

i did it today, it was extremely easy, and i have a noticeable improvement in acceleration smoothness, maybe 20%. Just put it in my crankcase, waiting a little bit to go change the oil.
It is even easier if you take a rubber hose and connect one end to a funnel. then the other directly to the intake manifold where a vacume hose would go. then you can measure ahead of time and pour it in gradually. hold your thumb in the hole at the bottom of the funnel when you arnt pouring so your car wont stall. I did it by myself with nobody reving and it didnt stall on me.

I Seafoamed the civic last weekend. I sucked the fluid (1/3) thru the small hose on fuel pressure regulator (going into the intake). Let sit for 10 mins, started, then let the smoke fly! lmbo...im suprised the fire dept, didnt arrive hehe. a few days later i sprayed Deep Creep into my throttle body and intake, let sit for 15 mins and much of the same, but not as much smoke. the Deep Creep is a nice product, definitely cleans and lubricates. im not sure how much "better" my car is from doing it. my tranny issues always seem to overshadow everything else :/
