    You should use vegetable glycerin. It's water soluble and safe to inhale. Non soluble oil vapor from mineral oil can be really harmful to lungs because when you inhale it the oil stays in your lungs. Smoke machines for concerts use vegetable glycerin or polypropylene glycol so you should use those.

    I don't smoke. I had a cigarette in my mouth around 1985 but I didn't inhale. I tried one of those smokers looking for a leak when I was getting a code in a 1999 Camry about evaporative emissions system leaking. Mine didn't have a fan so I used a squirrel fan for boat inflation and also a bicycle pump. The evaporative emissions system is more complicated than the entire fuel intake everything system in my 67 VW Bug. So much unnecessary junk. If U R looking for a noisy exhaust leak I made a probe with a PVC pipe and corner bend peace so I could probe the exhaust pipe and when I'm by the hole I hear it.

    I would like to know how much film would be left inside the vehicle after checking the interior for leaks. I have a wind noise and can't find the source. Tried sliding paper around the windows and seals, no joy, but i think that smoke would quickly locate the leak. Thing is, I'd rather put up with the wind noise than have to clean the interior - especially the windows...
