Seafoamed the 88 tonight. Had all the neighbors outside looking for the fire ! 
I should have done that long ago. Went to O'Reilly auto parts and they had it on sale for $6.00 a can sooo just had to buy a few .
Thanks to the OP for taking the time to do an execellent job on the write up

Thanks Bigdreynolds, I really appreciate yours and all the others kind words. I really enjoyed writing this how-to and look forward to writing others.
I have one edit to make to my original post. I originally recommended pulling the plastic head on the brake booster to separate the vacuum line from the brake booster. The same result can be accomplished by taking a set of pliers to that little clip right to the left of the plastic head in pic two. The reason I didn't include it is because that clip (especially in older models) can easily break. In addition, that plastic head provides a larger diameter spot to pour in seafoam. But there it is just in case. I just wanted to include it as an FYI. Thanks all again for the positive feedback and God bless.
