Hi all,
Tracking down vacuum leaks on the 914 is a source of frustration for many 914 owners. It seems that smoke machines are increasingly popular for many shops http://www.motor.com/magazinepdfs/072003_04.pdf I was curious if anyone has experience using them on the 914. Seems like a good way to seek and find plenum leaks or related. |

Never used one on the teener, use them at work once in a while to look for leaks on machines or electrical cabinets that we have to pressurize to keep them at a positive pressure relative the room they are installed in.
