I used a small container of propane gas, just start the engine, get an idle, and open the nozzle. Move the nozzle tip around, if the RPM suddenly rises, you found your leak.

Quick start fluid works good too. I always have carb/tb cleaner, propane and quick start fluid around. Which ever one I find first is the the one I use.
