Hello my fellow BMW peeps, I don't know if your like me but I always have vaccum leaks especially in the m52 I have it is notorious for having some type of air leak that's one of the things I hate about that engine everything just cracks n breaks, unfortunately alot of us have to deal with it can be a pain in the a$$ looking for them under that big intake manifold so I was thinking if I could use a fog machine instead of a evap smoke machine would it be safe to use in it, I know most of the fog machines use some type of juice to make it fog or smoke but I wanted to know if this is another option to find vaccum leaks because my mom's Benz is also running lean, I have torn the Intake manifold off at least 5 times digging for air leaks but real hard to find in limited space

This. Fog machines usually have low output pressure and might just clog up the machine.
