Diagnosing elusive leaks can be a significant drain on workshop time, impacting profitability and customer satisfaction. This Sealey Smoke Leak Detector offers a direct, efficient solution, enabling technicians to pinpoint faults quickly and accurately across a wide range of vehicle systems.

Forget the guesswork and time-consuming traditional methods. This unit injects a visible smoke into the system, revealing even the most minuscule leaks that often go undetected. It's an invaluable tool for tackling a multitude of common issues:

  • Air Intake Leaks: Quickly identify unmetered air entering the engine, resolving rough running, poor idle, and lean fuel conditions that trigger engine management lights.
  • Cooling System Leaks: Visually confirm coolant loss points without relying solely on pressure drops.
  • EVAP System Faults: Essential for diagnosing persistent P0420-P0457 codes, locating leaks in the evaporative emissions system.
  • Fuel System Integrity: Check for leaks in low-pressure fuel lines.
  • Exhaust System Leaks: Pinpoint small exhaust leaks that can affect sensor readings or cause NVH issues.
  • Vacuum System Issues: Track down vacuum leaks affecting brake boost, HVAC controls, and various engine actuators.

The system operates with both air and smoke modes, allowing for pressure testing and visual confirmation via the integrated gauge. Powering directly from a 12V vehicle battery, it's practical and portable for use anywhere in the workshop. Its clean operation ensures no messy residues, keeping your work environment tidy.

Supplied with a comprehensive kit, this detector is ready for immediate application. The robust set of eight rubber blanking cones covers a broad range of diameters from Ø5mm to 75mm, ensuring you can seal off various ports and pipes effectively. Also included are a cone adaptor, power cord clamp, valve core wrench, test oil refill bottle, smoke hose, EVAP connector, and a universal airbag adaptor, providing the versatility needed for diverse diagnostic scenarios. Please note that mineral test oil is not supplied and will need to be purchased separately.
