Vacuum line on 271 engine.
Hi, I just picked up an 05 c230 kompressor and want to run seafoam through it to clean out any buildup. I can see the brake booster line but it splits a number of times and I don't know if it's safe to suck the seafoam through it (or how to remove it). Can anyone tell me where a safe vacuum line is and how to disconnect it?
Thanks!
Thanks!

I've been searching the forum for the answer to this question.....seen several posts where the question is asked but everyone who responds avoids answering it all together. Seems like it's use has been discouraged so much that anyone who has used Seafoam kept the process to themselves or avoided using it. Does anyone know the answer now?

I disconnected brake booster line and successfully ran seafoam. It worked great. Just make sure to add seafoam slowly.
