It is very well made. You can use whichever smoke oil you like. I bought some low odor type designed for the purpose, but you can use baby oil if you like that smell. This unit seemed the best value for the money out of all the ones that I looked at and it also had better reviews and it is getting another one. I was able to find several leaks in the vacuum system on a car that I was in the process of bringing back to life after being out of service for about 15 years. When I connected the smoke for the first time, I had to laugh. It was coming from so many places. I would fix a few and do it again. fix another couple and do it again. I even discovered that the gaskets around two of the six fuel injectors was leaking. Without this machine, I feel like I would never have been able to get this car running. It works great and is very easy to use. I liked it so much I bought the AUTOOL Fuel Injector Cleaning Machine. I'm happy with that one too. AUTOOL seems to make good stuff. Review: Perfect tool for the job! - Great price and quick shipping! Easy to use and helped diagnose a vacuum problem immediately. Little messy, but it's to be sure when messing with baby oil, I'm sure Diddy had that problem also! Very durable, and well built, loved the included accessories. ## Features - 【Why Need It】For example: 1. The rupture of the vacuum hose will cause the mixture to be too thick, the idle speed will increase, the hot car will not start well, the engine will surge during acceleration, the fuel consumption will increase significantly, and the exhaust pipe will emit black smoke. 2. Blocking will cause the idle speed to drift, and the idle speed is easy to stall. 3. Air leakage in the vacuum tube will cause the engine to run weakly - 【Built-in Air Pump】Customers do not need to purchase additional air pumps, we use high-quality materials, after many tests, please rest assured to use.
