Air leak test
submerge it underwater :P
JUST KIDDING!!!! DO NOT TRY THAT!!!! IT WILL BREAK!!!!
you can try a technique from my wrench turning days... Spray some break cleaner around the engine and if it speeds up, you found your air leak. Only trouble is I dont know if the break cleaner will make the engine run faster like an automobile engine. Also, not everyone has that stuff laying around the house...
worth a try tho.

Air leak test
Ok after you spray the engine with wd 40 how do you fix the leak? so if the RPMs drop when you spray the engine there is a leak? What about air in the gas line how do i fix this? Also i was told i could do a search on sealing an engine but i cant find it, so does anyone know how to properly seal an engine?
