Yup!!

I made one for an old child's nebulizer and a 1 gallon oil jug.

Jug for smoke machine, I love me some BrakeKleen!!



Drill hole in top and insert some 5/16" fuel hose to accept the smoke maker



Drill hole in bottom to accept the input from the nebulizer or other air supply. Low pressure medium flow.



Head over to the local corner store and buy a few of the cheapest plastic tipped cigars they have. I got mine at 0.15 cents each. Push unlit cigar into inside of cap hose so that it will smoke when air is applied.



Airline in



light cigar



Insert into jug with air on to keep it going.



Get lots of smoke!



Attach to intake, plug up exhaust and intake system to keep the smoke in. Now look for where the smoke is getting out.

Changed out fuel filter this weekend hoping that would end the stalling issue. It didn't. After a 30 minute drive, I shut down the car, went into a store for 15 minutes. Took several tries to get it started, then once it started, it stalled a number of times, once while driving. The rest of the time it stalled while at a stop light. RPMs were at 1000. Stopped again when I got to my next destination and it fired right up and RPMs were at about 800 and no stalling issues. Regarding the hard start issue part, my tack barely "quivered" while cranking. What should it look like while cranking?

HELP!!! I am afraid to drive it out of fear of getting stranded.
