Subject: Engines-List: Induction leak

Anyone got a simple way to find out if there is an induction leak?  Havin
g
problems with getting the engine to idle below 1,000 and it was suggested
that this may be a possible cause.

Also have to look at timing.  Can I use a 12 volt bulb from the P lead to
the positive lead on the battery to check the Slick mag?

What I do when assembling an engine, is to initially leave the intake 
rockers off.
I made small phenolic plates to cover the carb/injector opening, and 
apply
a couple of pounds of air pressure through a fitting incorporated in the 
plate.
Any induction leaks will be immediately evident by using a soapy 
solution
such as dishwashing liquid.
