The sopy water works well, but in the pits, it's hard to find sometimes. We found another way to check for leaks. Take a length of the oneumatic tubing in the kit (like 3-4 ft), and hold one end to your ear. Then take the other end and put it next to your suspect fitting. You'd be surprised how easily you can hear whether or not it is leaking!
