Techron is good stuff, in the tank only. Sucking it in your brake hose and watching the smoke is fun, but that's about all your doing is burning the seafoam. If you want to clean intake manifold go get Mopar combustion cleaner from dealer. Seafoam is mostly isopropyl alcohol, naptha and some other oils.
