00-01 vac line.

Is the vac line in the same place on a 01 TL as is on a 00 TL?

Yea or just take the whole intake off and spray SLOWLY into the motor and all over the butterfly valve while controlling the revs with your finger on the throttle cable. Don't rev really high just enough to get the DEEP CREEP (Not Seafoam.. well it is but comes in an aerosol can making it easier to introduce to the system) past the TB and into the intake manifold.

Yes, thats exactly what they all are. Vacuum lines. You use vac lines because they suck the fluid in.

A friend if mine wants to seafoam his 01 tl and he told me that when he pulled out the "vac line" coolant was coming out!!!! I guess he pulled out the wrong line.
