Vacuum Leak Test, Carburetor Models; "...First, use a mechanic's stethoscope (just the hose, no steel probe) to try to localize the leak with the engine running. Check the carb base, body, hoses, or what have you.
Turn the engine off, then use a small spray bottle of extra-soapy water to spray the suspected area with a moderate amount of water.
Next, find a manifold vacuum port (the brake servo booster hose for example) to apply a small amount of shop air. Apply just enough air pressure to get the soap to bubble. We don't want to ruin any check valves or anything.
Seal the carburetor throat(s), then watch for the bubbles. You'll find the precise location of your leak..."

Vacuum Leak Test; "...Okay, now that we have covered what a vacuum leaks do, how do you find components that leak vacuum? One way is to visually inspect all the vacuum hoses and connections. Look for disconnected, loose or cracked hoses, broken fittings, etc. Hey, you might get lucky and find the problem in a few minutes, or you might waste half the day trying to find the mysterious leak. Vacuum leaks are often the elusive needle in a haystack. And if it is not a hose leaking vacuum but something else such as a gasket, worn throttle shaft, injector O-rings, etc., you may never find it using this technique. A faster technique for finding intake manifold vacuum leaks is to get a bottle of propane and attach a length of rubber hose to the gas valve. Open the valve so you have a steady flow of gas. Then hold the hose near suspected leak points while the engine is idling. If there is a leak, propane will be siphoned in through the leak. The resulting "correction" in the engine's air/fuel ratio should cause a noticeable change in idle speed and/or smoothness (Note: on engines with computerized idle speed control, disconnect the idle speed control motor first). Aerosol carburetor cleaner can also be used the same way. CAUTION: Solvent is extremely flammable, so do not smoke or use it if there are any sparks in the vicinity (arcing plug wires, for example). Spray the solvent on suspected leak points while the engine is idling. If there is a leak, the solvent will be drawn into the engine and have the same effect as the propane. The idle speed will suddenly change and smooth out..."
