You can borrow a freon leak detector from either Autozone or O-reilly auto
parts and do the same thing for close to free- and they are very sensitive-
and since you will be putting Freon gas into the tanks instead of propane or
CNG your chances of a disastrous explosion drop to zero!

Any one use one of these leak detectors to find leaks in there strakes?
I was thinking of putting a little gas in the tank then pressurizing it with

a Balloon
and using this to sniff around for leaks. I have a very slow leak!
