Default Vacuume System Tests procedures

Does anyone have good pictures or write up for how to do a comprehensive vaccuum system test?

Thanks

I was just going to replace everything, but are you talking about "every" vacuum leak, all I know is the trick of spraying carb cleaner around.

what does that do ? make leaks visible as bubbles
or do bubbly leaks become all 'cool and stuff' with the fumes of the carb cleaner?

When carb cleaner gets sucked into the vacuum leak it changes the engine idle a bit even if its just a small amount that gets in, spray a spot, listen, move to a new spot, repeat.
