    If you have ever seen the inside of your intake manifold it is kinda like a filter for oil vapors.. Very hard to describe but the best example is its like a detention pond once the pond fills up then it will spill over a dam into the intake tubes... you could probably put a full bottle of sea foam and it will just sit in the bottom of the main chamber and evaporate. That i know of there isnt any special vacuum line that will bypass that "dam" and go into all cylinders...

    Damn right! if some fluids stay inside plenum - you will see white smoke after hard cornering- fluid has to go somewhere.

    It would have to be a pretty irratic corner! Even if seafoam spilled over the "dam" it would still have to be sucked up and over in the upper manifold and then the seafoam would finally meet up with the cylinder intake on... my only conclusion is that seafoam is pretty useless in the intake unless you can somehow fine mist the seafoam into the intake. Otherwise youre better off just putting a bottle in the fuel tank...
