Why do I need a special machine that includes OEM EVAP-Approved smoke technology, like this Smoke Wizard®, for testing a vehicle’s fuel vapor recovery system?
Most important is that the patented technology that is in the Smoke Wizard was developed in collaboration with the Big-3 U.S. automakers; designed to their specifications, to be safe on vehicle components (including activated charcoal, O2 sensors and catalytic converters); is approved for EVAP system testing, and will not void the vehicle factory warranty. Additionally, licensed EVAP-Approved Testers like the Smoke Wizard are designed to function with non-combustible inert gas, such as nitrogen, for the safest EVAP testing possible. Introducing oxygen-rich compressed air into the EVAP system increases the probability of igniting the gasoline fumes inside and outside the EVAP system.
