Basic Leak Testing
LeakTamer can be used in virtually any low-pressure
vehicle system suspected of having a leak, including
EVAP, intake/induction, intercooler and turbocharger,
vacuum, exhaust, and wind/water leaks. LeakTamer
can also be used to verify air solenoid functions and
test components before assembly. These basic steps
can apply for testing most systems.
1. Locate the system port.
2. Install appropriate port adapter.
3. Insert vapor supply hose into adapter.
4. Turn the unit on by pressing the <ON> button.
5. Close system vent(s).
6. Continue to fill the system until the flow meter
indicates the system is full (ball drops in indicator).
7. Use the LED lamp to check for leaking vapor or
the UV lamp to check for dye deposited at the exact
location of the leak.
