Probably the closest vacuum line to the throttle body. Just do it slow let it work it's magic. Use like 3/4 of it and put the rest in the gas tank. I also read using the break booster

I'm due for another treatment as well, and I have always looked at the pic in the FAQ to verify which hose. But now I can't for the life of me remember if it's the upper or lower. I suggest a PM to IlyaKol (capital "i" is the first letter).
He will be able help you out, since he is the one who made that DIY.

If you're not driving and it's not too dusty you can just remove the air filter and spray directly into the intake from there. I've never performed this myself but heard good things about it. Fortunately just last year I took the entire top plenum and TB off and cleaned it manually while installing the spacer so I think I'm okay. One thing I am unclear of is what this stuff will do to your spark plugs and the cats.

OK, now I'm confused. You said it HAS to be the lower hose, then you said you used the UPPER hose and it worked fine.
