I have used it befor once. my truck had like 135xxx miles or so and put it in throught the vac line and let it sit for like 15ish or so minutes then started it up and it was a nice smoke show.

from what i have read by doing searches
- I would not put it in and have it stall on me. I would just put it in then shut the truck off and let it sit.
- Do it when it's kinda windy out so the smoke blows away and does not sit in one area.
- do at your own risk
- the truck did seem not as loud after it.
- as of using it in the oil or gas i don't know. i never did it.

good luck and hope this helps some.

^ was kinda in a rush when i posoted befor and just took the video out of my favorites list and posted it.

From: Ishpeming Mi.
I caught a post somewhere where the guy had secured an inflater needle [for a basketball] to his brake vacuum line to limit the amount that could be drawn into his engine with good results. Seems like a smart idea to me, as it reduces the chance of stalling it.

I read an article that said the 3.0 was bad to carbon up and should be seafoamed when the get some miles on them. They get slugish and loose power, maybe even miss, mpg drops. I thought they were describing a new 3.0 ha ha.
