Evap Leak

My engine light recently turned on, so i checked the code and it said that i have a small evap leak. I heard that the most common problem is caused by the gas cap, so i replaced the gas cap and erased the old engine code and the code came up again within a day. I know where the evap lines are and where the evap vapor canister is located but what i don't know is where the " small leak " is located. Is there any kind of tricks or tools that are avaliable to help locate this kind of problem? Any suggestions are appreciated.

Smoke machine.

What is your suggestion on where to buy a decent smoke maching that isin't going to cost me an arm and a leg? I have already checked local auto stores as well as a few online stores and if they can get it, it will cost around $1,000 doesn't sound right to me. Let me know, thanks.

They can cost alot more then a $1000. Try your luck on Ebay if you really want one. If you only work on your own cars it might be cheaper to take it to someone that has one. A smoke machine might have a hard time paying for itself if its only used at home.

I agree with reekor on this. A shop will charge you an hour or less to diagnose for you. That is a lot cheaper than purchasing a machine.

Thanks for the advise. It definitaly helps to get the knowledge from somebody else that doen't sugar coat things. Didn't really know the cost. Know i know. Off to the shop, Thanks.
