Sure. You put it into the vacum line running from the brake booster to the engine. On the left side of the booster, if i am right.

What does this look like i am thinking it is a black rubber tube that is about 1/4 of an inch in diameter that connects to a selenoid infront of the throttle body?

you want to pull the rubber hose and the connector(usually plastic) thats going into the brake booster (big black round metal thing on the drivers side of your car, sticcking through the firewall) you'll see the hose, pull it off while the vehicle is running and stick the hose into the can and tip shut vehicle off for 10 to 15 min then watch the smoke show when you start it back up


make sure the vehicle is hot when you start to run it through too

I just tried to do this and anytime i went to remove the vacume line the car would die and if i tried to start the car without the vacume line it would start for a second then die?

am i doing something wrong or what?

nope thats the right one, sometimes its hard to keep the car running when your putting it in, and when you go to start the vehicle when your done, it may take a few tries, but it will start, if you have a buddy there to help you have him start it while you got your finger over the hose, you may have to have him rev it (just a little) when it sounds like its going to stall

I had a little movement in my idol before and now that is completly gone the neddle does not move at all.

and my engine is so quite now it is amazing

also the car seems smoother on acceleration

P.S. also the smoke show was cool to
