I'm not a shop, I just use home made tools. Making smoke is not rocket science. I'm not using a lot of pressure, didn't want to pop anything, but I could hook up some compressed air to it, that's a thought..

The thing is, if it's only leaking sometimes, then I'd have to test it under those conditions, which would be a bit difficult to accomplish.

I guess I'm just going to pull the kit, and if I don't find anything it must be defective. Seems logical.
