Default Induction cleaning on a 4.2?

One of the popular self-maintenance items that Rover folks like to do is using a bottle of Seafoam to do an induction cleaning. Beyond temporarily smoking up the neighborhood & getting the attention of all passers-by, it does seem to have a positive impact on engine performance. Does anyone do this on the Jags? If so, where can I find the valve to suck in the Seafoam?

Thx.

X2 to jagv8's "NO". Sucking basically hydraulic fluid similar to that of a/t fluid will likely foul more than do good.
