hello can anyone tell me what i can use to check for a vacuum leak on an edelbrock carb and intake with the endurashine finish. i seem to have a vac. leak and can hear it but can't seem to find it . thanks

Easiest and cheapest is a spray can of WD40, although it is a little messy to wipe up the lube. It has propane in it. An alternative is a propane bottle with a small diameter hose attached to move around the manifold. Take all matches and cigarette lighters out of your pocket and the pockets of friends who will be anywhere in the area.

I normally use brake cleaner because it leaves no residue to clean up afterward, but carb and choke cleaner is good too.....
