I did this same concept for radiator/coolant system. put a tire stem valve through a spare radiator cap and pumped air with a bicycle pump

[@wyattoneable]

The "in and out" blur cracked me up. I for got what your building now. Oh yeah, nice job on the modification.

[@themechanic6117]

😄thank you. It makes the job super easy

[@timothymyhand519]

Can I get a parts list for the smoke machine..

[@dontblameme6328]

Just disconnect the evap line from the purge valve and connect up there.

See "thinking works" . Awesome HACK Johnathan 👍👍

[@themechanic6117]

The first time it was here I wasted about 40 min trying to figure out how to smoke test it. With the new tool I had the smoke test done in 15 min . Work smarter not harder! 👍

@@themechanic6117 KISS!!! (Keep It Simple.. and the rest, you know LOL)

[@micaht7768]

Not having to balance or hang the smoke machine up where you're working is a nice bonus. Cool idea, thanks.

[@themechanic6117]

Yeah that's always a hassle

[@steven4894]

Excellent idea. 💡

[@themechanic6117]

Thank you

Well time for me to go to junk yard and grab some gas caps.

At first glance I thought this was another "How To" video of some Chicago Hoodlum yo-yo punk thinking he just reinvented the bong. Glad to see it's Jonathan, with an incredibly versatile tool- an automotive smoke machine! Thank you for the video, mech a n🔧c.

[@125sm3]

Very inventive , if you can't by the tool then just make it.. nice one .

[@themechanic6117]

A set of fancy aluminum adapters like this costs over $400! It's crazy lol

[@johnmorrow1628]

Do you have a link for your debuting tool. I like that you can do the OD aswell

[@themechanic6117]

It's a great tool! I got mine from eastwood but I just found it on JEGS for less www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/555/81388/10002/-1?gclid=Cj0KCQjw4PKTBhD8ARIsAHChzRKTWdv736w-ZbbQxbE4Y9rbFT-ZkSVDREccWUgvaRz1YIzwaMuamBoaAiV6EALw_wcB

I love the DYI home made tool! Awesome innovation for smoke testing. What scan/command tool did you use? I was looking into buying a 3,000 ALLTel one but it seems like it will be WAY overkill IMO. I have a wireless OBD2 scanner that reads most codes but unfortunately no way to command the ECU or modules.

[@themechanic6117]

Thanks for watching. The scanner I'm using is the launch diagun 4 , it's a very capable tool with bi directional functions 👍

[@Nous3rnam3haha]

@@themechanic6117 Awesome! Thank you for the info. I subscribed after this video. I look forward to seeing some more. Keep up the awesome honest work you're showing here!

[@wm973]

Nice job........... Again. Now you know it works and easy to use. Was that scented smoke? :)

[@themechanic6117]

It definitely has a smell to it but I wouldn't call it scented lol

[@Kiss__Kiss]

My simplistic Brain is hurting, to the point of melting.. Thanks, buddy.. LOL!!!

[@themechanic6117]

😁You'll be ok lol

[@Dude3617]

That’s right her purge valve is oem 😜

[@Darjan_Spasojevic]

How did u learn the evap system? What each part does and how they collaborate with one another?

[@themechanic6117]

Even though different cars have different evap system designs they usually have the same basic functions. It's not uncommon to have to do research. Over the years you just get better at it like any other job
