Default Seafoaming the Camry

Hey guys, my dads 2002 camry le has seen many, MANY miles on it, and, even though its working, its seen better days. The car seems to struggle when accelerating, and recently got a check engine light and were told the car was running lean. Cleaned out the throttle body, and the air filter, cleaned the O2 sensor, and now, im looking to seafoam the car too. My dilemma is that im not exactly a grease monkey (shame on me), and, dont know where the vacuum line is (pretty sure that it goes there).

Was wondering if there was any guides with pictures or videos that I can take a look at as i dont want to hydro lock the car. Did a bit of searching, and haven't seen anything for the 02 camry le.


Thanks fellas

Seafoam user since 2001 on all cars.
Never did it through vacuum line. Always used gas tank and crankcase.
Not sure what you trying to accomplish. Clean injectors? Better ways of doing it.

SEAFOAM IS A STRONG MEDICINE!!!
