When I get this thing out, I'm going to smoke test it before it goes back in!
Well, the good news is you found the area where it's leaking. Also, the low cost smoke machine worked well for you. You will use it for all kinds of other stuff too. Open a disco! We smoke test every engine before it leaves the school. Out of 14 engines this year, 4 of them had some kind of issue, so your not alone.
