Yeah, you disconnect the vacuum line off of the brake booster and put the hose in the bottle and let it suck about 1/2 to a whole can into the intake. Once it does that, you shut the truck off and let it sit for a while (about a half hour) and then let er rip.

The hose will suck the liquid so fast it vaporizes it. The engine will want to bog and die. Just let up, let it resume high idle and continue until about half or whole can is used up. Don't let it die while doing this. Then when satisfied with amount, shut truck off. Wait a half hour. Turn it on and let it run awhile giving it small revs. Then take it out and run it hard, going through the gears. The smoke may take awhile but it should come. If there isn't much smoke, after 10 minutes of doing it this way, try it again in a week. The first time I did it this way, not much smoke at all but a little as I drove it hard. Tried it again after a road trip and TONS of smoke.
I'm quoting myself because some of you didn't read it the first time.
