While modern smoke generators cost a bundle ones that suite our needs can be found for about 75.00 on E bay , I found them handy for detecting manifold and shaft leaks , put the smoke pipe up the tail pipe and let it do its thing and the bad seal will billow smoke from it

You can use a can of starting fluid or even WD 40. Waft it around carburettors and intake gaskets and listen for an incerease in idle speed.

Searching for an intake leak, as I recall, involves an unignited propane bottle wafted around the carp bodies...have I got that right? Tips?

If it's dependent on throttle and not RPM then I would start by looking for an intake leak. - Steve Simmons, TC8975

On a relatively high speed run my TC started backfiring when under load. Easing the throttle smoothed it out somewhat but when I put my foot back in the backfire came back. Intermittent, and with varying intensity. I'm thinking condenser. Your thoughts please?
Thanks,
