No, You should see a little black tube that connects to your master cylinder and you take that hose and put it into the bottle and let it suck up the 1/3rd of the can

Take your intake off and pour some down the throttle body, your going to need to keep reving it up so it doesn't die, and then when you think it's had enough(I usually use half a can down the TB) pour in enough to make it stall out. Then let it sit for at least 15 min. It's going to be hard to start at first, when it starts, go for a drive and watch the smoke show!

How do you figure? The seafoam would spend very little time in the throttle body with the engine running...
