  • Can the leaks cause the speed of your car to decrease?

  • Can a cracked hose cause p0443 code?

  • i learn everything on youtube

  • Very well done, I've been chasing a P0456 on my Jeep and this video will be very helpful. Unfortunately I do not have a smoke machine like yours so this may be difficult

  • @guayacan07 good thinking I like that idea, Thank you for this Video

  • realfix i have an large and small leak but i'm afraid to start the car but where can i get a smoke machine frum

  • I like that... Old machine, old guy lololo

  • Good film clip

  • Hum......I have a little bit of a shake to my motor.

    It is a 98 2.2 LN2 4 cycl. Chevy s-10.

    The plugs are good, vacuum is good. it don't burn oil, runns very peppy.

    it just has a little bit of a shake at idle that it never had before

  • I'm starting to think you are the best.........

  • wow evap smoke test is that easy ? thank you so much for this video.

  • very informative thank you! i recently had a P0442 come up on a 05 Chev tracker trouble shooting were the leak is

  • something tells me that those 2 little cuts prolly cost the owner about $300

  • This guy "smoked it" more than Snoop Dog!

  • For a backyard mechanic it would be a lot easier to replace the hose from and to the tank. It cost about $20 for 50 feet so let's say you spend $60 on the hose, it's still a lot less than you'd pay for a diagnostic and labor and parts.

  • I like the video,however I can't afford to take my car to a shop can I make a smoke machine?...I have a code P0455 Large leak and do my own mechanic work for me and some close family and friends and a machine like this would help me in many ways....thanks for the input

  • @standingwithfeast

    10-11 psi into the EVAP system?!? Are you trying to CAUSE leaks? These machines operate at .47 psi and anything above 1 psi is asking for trouble. EVAP lines have no clamps and are often dry-rotted, etc. they are not designed to hold anywhere near that type of pressure, any slight pressure applied is strictly for leak testing. That is either a typo on your part or completely wrong information.

  • Great video, it was very helpful!

  • Great video.

  • @MrHvm1985 try inject air into evap system with no more than 10-11 psi, and close of vent valve. Use stethoscope without the tip, but the hose only to listen for hissing sound as you follow the evap system route. Smoke-Pro is affordable smoke machine selling at ebay, but shop around. Great machine. Good for intake, exhaust, and evap leak diag.

  • Great video! how would you close the vent valve?

  • t vid keep it up

  • I realize I'm talking about a different piece of equipment than what's shown in this video, but something I like to do to verify EVAP repairs is to either command the system to seal w/scan tool or shut off the vent valve, calibrate the flowmeter on the EVAP smoke machine, and pump nitrogen into the system. If the ball stays at or below where you put the red arrow after running nitrogen through the calibration orifice, you're good to go.

  • Great video- thank you for making it. I struggle with EVAP codes almost daily, but our shop does not have a smoke machine. I'd love to have one, but it's a shame they're so outrageously expensive.

  • great video

    THANKS

  • i found my leak on the fuel pump seal, it had a distorted locking ring.

  • cool

  • GREAT VID. THANKS
