Find a mechanic with one of these

This is the best-effing-leak-detection-device ever! Plug it in, find the leak. Wala!



It took less than 2 minutes to find the 2 bad gaskets in my CYM. It is obvious as heck where they are with this device.



A lot of mechanics use them now. It should'nt be hard to find a place that has one. GL!

What do you guys use as a gasket for the omp blockoff plate. Cause I have red rtv on it, lots of it https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif. Its the only thing with rtv and I have checked everything so I'm coming up with it being that. Is the black rtv better suited for this?

My 5th and 6th ports are rusted up/seazed up it might be why my car's idle is so rough when cold...(might be causing a small vaccuum leak)...i cant even tell if they are seazed open or shut!

So I don't really know what I did but I fixed it. I pulled off the intake and fuel rail and injectors and I put it back together and poof. It works.

I wish I knew though just in case it ever happens again. I'm guessing something wasn't on correctly, injector cocked a little or something... who knows
