HyperSmoke™ Automotive Smoke Machine

You can diagnose leaks in:

• EVAP systems
• Vacuum lines
• Intake systems
• Exhaust systems
• Fuel vapor lines

Basically, anything sealed that shouldn't leak — this machine finds it.

Normal Mode (0–7 PSI): For intake, vacuum, exhaust testing and more

EVAP Mode (0–1 PSI): For EVAP system diagnostics (low-pressure sensitive components)

Switching modes takes seconds via the pressure knob.

Yes. These EVAP (P0455, P0456, P0457) and lean-condition (P0171) codes are caused by the kinds of leaks the

HyperSmoke is built to find. Use EVAP mode for evaporative-emissions codes and Normal mode to chase the vacuum or intake leaks behind a lean code.

Yes. The HyperSmoke™ is designed for all gasoline vehicles and most light-duty diesel systems. Just ensure you follow the safety guidelines, use in well-ventilated areas, and never operate it with the engine running.

Yes. Switch to Normal mode to safely pressurize intake, charge-pipe, and boost systems and pinpoint leaks that cause boost loss or codes. Many budget machines max out at 1 PSI and can't test boost systems.

Yes. The HyperSmoke works on any sealed system that shouldn't leak — including motorcycles, ATVs, UTVs, marine engines, and small engines — anywhere you need to find an intake, vacuum, exhaust, or fuel-system leak. Use EVAP mode for low-pressure components.

It's built for gasoline vehicles and most light-duty diesels. It isn't intended for heavy-duty diesel emissions systems or for use on a running engine, and it isn't a replacement for a scan tool — pair it with an OBD-II scanner for code-driven diagnostics.

Yes. Connect it to a 12V battery, add smoke fluid, choose your pressure mode, and introduce smoke into the system — most first-timers find their leak within minutes. Step-by-step videos and guides are included and available on the AutoLine Pro YouTube channel and learning center.

It runs directly off any 12V DC battery (your car battery works perfectly). No external air compressor or wall outlet required.

No. The HyperSmoke has a built-in air compressor and runs off any 12V DC battery, including your car battery. There's no shop air line or wall outlet required, which makes it ideal for mobile and at-home use.

There are a few methods depending on the system:

• EVAP: Use the gas cap adapter or EVAP service port
• Intake: Use the included cone or DIY latex glove adapter
• Exhaust: Insert the cone into the tailpipe and seal the other end

We include video guides and diagrams in the manual and on this page. You can also visit our YouTube page for more helpful information and tips.

Yes. Each unit includes a starter bottle of AutoLine Pro Smoke Fluid, specifically engineered for thick, visible, OEM-approved output.

Every HyperSmoke includes two 20 ml packets of AutoLine Pro OEM-approved smoke fluid. Each packet fills the reservoir for about 120 minutes of active smoke generation — so you get two full 120-minute cycles out of the box, enough for dozens of typical leak tests. When you need more, 8 oz refill bottles are sold separately (and included in the Premium Adapter Kit); each 8 oz bottle delivers 20+ hours of runtime.

Refilling takes seconds — add AutoLine Pro OEM-approved smoke fluid to the reservoir. Refill bottles are available on autolinepro.com; an 8oz bottle provides 20+ hours of smoke generation. We recommend AutoLine Pro fluid only, as other fluids can clog the unit or void the warranty.

We strongly recommend using AutoLine Pro Smoke Fluid only. It's optimized for visibility, safety, and system longevity. Other fluids may clog, underperform, or void your warranty.

The Shop Series is the HyperSmoke's predecessor — the HyperSmoke improves on it in nearly every way, so for a new purchase we recommend the HyperSmoke.

The Ventus is a different class of tool, best for shop owners who do a lot of EVAP testing: a built-in lithium-ion battery (8-hour runtime, the only machine on the market with one), fully self-contained operation (no compressor or 12V leads), a built-in flow meter to gauge leak size, Atomic Smoke instant odorless smoke, up to 75 hours per bottle, regulated 1 PSI pressure, and a lifetime warranty.

The HyperSmoke is the better choice for everyone else — our newest model, with ultra-thick smoke, two pressure modes (Normal 0–7 PSI and EVAP 0–1 PSI), 20+ hours per 8 oz bottle, and a 5-year warranty when purchased directly from AutoLine Pro.

The HyperSmoke holds its own against both budget machines like Solary and premium units like Redline Detection or Ancel.

Against budget competitors, its biggest advantages are a regulated, adjustable pressure, EVAP safe, included smoke fluid, and continuous runtime without overheating.

Against premium units that cost several times more, it delivers the core capabilities most shops and DIYers actually need — adjustable dual-mode pressure, a built-in air motor, and instant thick smoke — at a fraction of the price, backed by a 5-year warranty (when purchased directly from AutoLine Pro) and U.S.-based support.
