Solary Automotive Smoke Machine EVAP Leak Detector - Handheld 10s Smoke, Adjustable Pressure

The Solary Automotive Smoke Machine EVAP is a compact, built-in-pump smoke leak detector with adjustable pressure that finds leaks in EVAP, intake, exhaust and fuel systems in about 10 seconds.

Designed for mechanics, home DIYers and fleet technicians, this smoke tester combines a pressure gauge and a pressure-adjustment control inside a single handheld unit. It produces visible smoke after adding a small amount of mineral oil and uses a self-contained air pump so you don’t need an external compressor. Safety cutouts for both high and low temperatures increase reliability for workshop and outdoor use.

How quickly does it reveal leaks and how do I start it?

The Solary unit generates detectable smoke in roughly 10 seconds once the oil reservoir and connections are set. Operation is straightforward: add the recommended 10–20 ml of baby oil, connect to the system you want to test, set the pressure, and engage the pump to pressurize and smoke the circuit.

• Smoke appears in about 10 seconds after activation.
• Initial oil fill: 10–20 ml for first use.
• One-button pump operation — no external air source required.
• Quick disconnect fittings for common automotive ports.

What controls and protections help prevent damage during testing?

The machine combines a pressure gauge with a separate pressure-adjustment control so you can monitor and limit pressure precisely for delicate components. Built-in thermal protection engages at high and low extremes to protect the electronics and pump, making it safer for prolonged diagnostic sessions.

• Real-time pressure readout for accurate monitoring.
• Adjustable pressure knob to match component tolerance.
• Overheat protection triggers above +75°C.
• Cold-protection active below −20°C for reliable starts.

Which systems and vehicles can this smoke tester diagnose?

This smoke machine is versatile enough for EVAP systems, fuel tanks, intake boots, exhaust joints, hoses and various pipe fittings on cars, light trucks, motorcycles, ATVs and small boats. Its compact design and integrated pump make it practical for both shop benches and field repairs.

• EVAP system and fuel tank leak detection.
• Intake manifold and vacuum hose testing.
• Exhaust and pipe fitting inspections.
• Suitable for cars, motorcycles, ATVs, snowmobiles, boats and light trucks.

How portable and user-friendly is the Solary smoke tester for mobile work?

The unit’s self-contained pump and compact control layout make it easy to carry to roadside jobs or remote work sites. Clear gauges and a simple oil fill procedure reduce setup time; the machine is ready with common fittings for rapid diagnostics.

• Built-in pump — no separate compressor required.
• Compact housing with integrated gauges and controls.
• Minimal consumables: small oil quantity per test.
• Fast setup with standard hose adapters included.

Who is this for: technicians, independent mechanics and seasoned DIY enthusiasts who want a reliable, portable smoke leak detector that delivers fast visual feedback and adjustable pressure control for a wide range of vehicle systems. If you need to pinpoint leaks without bulky equipment or run diagnostics on mixed vehicle fleets, the Solary Automotive Smoke Machine EVAP streamlines testing while protecting delicate components with temperature and pressure safeguards.
