Working on my XJ & running with some seafoam. Now, added to gas - Check. Added to oil - Check. Going with the 3rd part - turning th ejeep on, slowly pouring seafoam into the brake booster cable or the PCV thing. I CANT FIND EITHER!!
I've searched and found posts on here that say there is no PCV (I've a 91 Limited 4x4. 4.0 I6)
I've seen the pic of where the brake booster ****s supposed to be. I don't have it.
To the back of my engine bay, driver side behind the air box is the little white tub for the brake fluid. Next to it is a black ball thingy with a small cylinder next to it that has wires that come out of it. I don't see any hoses though.
PLEASE HELP!!!!

If I don't have a brake booster, how or where can I put the seafoam in to clean the top end as described here https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f2/sea...estion-100475/ by Trans_am7935

The other method is to remove the air intake hose and ssssllloooowwwllllyyyy pour some directly into the throttle body. There's a video or two of some guys doing this on youtube. Make sure to keep the RPMs up to avoid stalling

There should be an unused nipple on the intake manifold, remove the plug from the nipple and put a hose on it. Then just put the plug back on when you're done.

Yeah I wouldn't do that method either... In your case, I would just do oil and gas and call it a day. What you can do is take off the throttle body and give it a good cleaning. But yeah, I wouldn't pour seafoam in it
