These machines can test a fuel vapor system straight out of the box, because the maker states an EVAP mode or a fixed output of about 1 PSI or less. The cheapest ones run at one low pressure only, which suits EVAP and small vacuum leaks but is too gentle for a turbo system. Two-mode machines add a high setting for boost and intake leaks, and the top models add a digital display that runs a timed pressure decay test.
