How can I get deicer fluid into the air lines of a straight truck ?

Thanks

The best and easy way to add it is to install the injector can listed below..Only thing I have herd and dont know if there is any Truth to it but some modern valves and plastics wont take the alcohol????
For sure and like Moot said,,Make sure alcohol does not get to the air dryer,,install in-line and behind the air dryer..

Amazon.com: Haldex Midland Alcohol Evaporator A72420: Automotive

There are 2 lines that run out of the compressor and the bottom 1 leaked so I changed both parts for $2 and 20 minutes

You do know that if you change the fittings, they have to be DOT approved, especially with the one at the gauge (which I would change both).

I did change both and they are dot approved from cat dealership. I am making sure everything is not only dot approved but safe for me, my cargo and public safety. The truck goes in monday for a valve adjustment, tranny service, air dryer service. the alingment and new tires went great today ended up with a new set of bridgestone r280 they were out of the yokos. but $850 for a pair on new steers and a full alignment is a great price I thought.
