Orion Motor Tech Smoke Leak Detector, Automotive EVAP Smoke Machine with Pressure Oil Gauge 6 L/min Flow Meter Airbag & Cone Adapters for Auto EVAP Vacuum Cooling Exhaust System Engine

Very good smoke production and comes with various adaptors etc also nice that it includes a bottle of oil to fill unlike many other smoke machines sold

Everything needed is supplied so you can start using it straight away.I have been chasing an elusive oil burning smell on a VW Transporter T5 2.5 Tdi for some time with no success.I connected the Orion Motor Tech smoke tester to the inlet air pipe using the pump up bladder fitting and turned on the machine. Within 30 seconds a wisp of smoke could be seen escaping from a cover on the timing case (mystery leak and smell found). I wish that I had purchased a smoke tester much earlier and am very pleased that I finally have this excellent one.

Excellent machine

The media could not be loaded. This Orion Motor Tech Smoke Leak Detector is an excellent tool for detecting leaks in various automotive systems. It's well-suited for professional mechanics and even DIY enthusiasts, though it might be a bit excessive for occasional use. The machine is easy to set up, with a clear pressure gauge and consistent smoke output that makes finding leaks straightforward. It comes with a wide range of adapters, ensuring compatibility with most vehicles. The compact design adds to its convenience, making it easy to store and transport. Overall, it's a valuable tool that offers great build quality and performance at a reasonable price.

Finally got round to testing this properly following a turbo fault - it allowed me to spot two failing clamps even after I went round and tightened them all up.As a portable smoker, especially with all the included accessories, this is excellent value. I have previously used a smoker from a very popular tool leasing company, and I would confidently say that this is comparable.Time will tell how this holds up being used and abused - but for me it will likely only be used once every couple of years at most.

I'm pleased to say that this boost leak detector helped me find a pin-point hole in my charge pipe, which was causing my car to throw up a EML. The machine is extremely easy to use and it comes with a range of attachments to help you through most situations. The instructions are brief but easy enough to follow, the pressure gauge is a nice touch but you shouldn't need it if your leak is blatant enough to notice.Overall, great product.

This is ideal for anyone needing to find leaks, the smoke output is nice and consistent and can be adjusted up or down and the pressurising is simple to setup and gauge.The instructions are clear and there are plenty of adapters which I'm sure cover most common vehicles.If you are looking for a product such as this, then I would say go for it, it certainly does what it is designed to do and it does it well.Considering the value here, I think it's a no brainer.

This is a workshop tool you will very rarely need as a DIY mechanic. However when the need strikes the device is invaluable.There box contains a range of adapters for different jobs. The machine burns baby oil but is supplied with a reasonable supply to last you a couple of jobs. I used mine to discover the source of an air leak in the induction pipework of a Jaguar 3.0 XF. It saved me a lot of extra work not to mention potential garage bills.Very good value.
