<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You'll recall that I inquired about equipment /
methods of generating a reasonable amount of non-toxic / non-corrosive smoke to
investigate airflow in and around the cowl. I picked up a smoke pen (<A
href="http://www.metermall.com">www.metermall.com</A>) and it appears to meet my
needs. Essentially, the "pen" utilizes a button operated collet to hold the
smoke wick - about 1/4" dia. braded material (cotton?) that appears to be
saturated with wax. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The wick is lit with a match and allowed to burn
for a couple minutes. When the flame is extinguished, the glowing wick produces
a good amount of smoke. (Think candle that's all wick and little candle.) The
smoke is non-toxic and nearly odor free. Each wick is good for 30 min or so and
is extinguished by simple placing the cap on the pen. </FONT></DIV>
