REFLECTOR: leak detection

[Alex Balic]

you can use a freon leak detector that you might be able to borrow from
somewhere- not the dye kit from AutoZone- but there is a very sensitive
"sniffer" that can detect trace amounts of the gas- which you would need to
introduce into the fuel system after it is drained out so that the gas can
make it's way into the sump system.

  I find that back in the area of the sump tank I can smell fuel fumes.  I
have examined everything closely more than once; there is no trace of any
fuel.  So it is apparently a small enough leak that it evaporates as fast as
it leaks.



  The fuel system is now empty, and I am going to put a bit of air pressure
into the system and search for a leak.  I know there are leak detection
solutions that are better than soap; just don't know what they are and where
I might find them locally.



  Looking for suggestions,



  Al
