I wouldn’t buy one make one at home with an old soldering gun. Google how to make a home made smoke machine. It’s very easy!

You can find them online. Just search something like “evap leak kit” or “automotive smoke tester” and see what comes up.

Basically the kit pumps smoke into the system, allowing you to clearly see any leaks in vacuum or evap lines. If you have a leak, the smoke will come out of some place where it’s not supposed to.

In reply to Andrea M Burkins. Sounds like there is a leak in the evap system. They make kits that can help you detect evap leaks yourself, if that is something you are interested in.
