Hello can anyone guide me to testing the evap
System with a smoke machine. Mainly where I can hook up to test the system for leaks?

check your vapor seal at the fuel tank (where the fuel neck goes into tank) those go bad and create a leak, happened to me

What fredfifty said. Do not get the made in China Dorman filler neck seals. They do not last very long. Get a made in USA Daniel Carpenter Reproductions seal. Take off your gas cap and fill your gas tank with smoke. Wrap a rag around your smoke machine hose if it's too small to seal.
