Me and the boy took the mustang to watch the races Friday night. On a hard pull I kinda felt a loss of power. Noticed I developed a helluva whistle. Gonna get a smoke tester. I see some on Amazon, but I don't wanna waste money on junk. Anyone have experience with Amazonian smoke testers?

now i can hopefully expect to receive the shaft
I haven't used mine yet, but i did do a fair amount of research when purchasing it and ended up with a Solary brand machine. It got great reviews and was fairly cheap.
Look for one with a pressure regulator. That way you can set it to a given amount , 1 or 2 psi and it wont blow out any seals. I believe mine was about 80-90 bucks. Works real good.
Didn't want to wait on a smoke tester. I do still plan on purchasing one, but for for now I used a hand transfer pump from hobo freight and a cigar. Found zero leaks in the vacuum system.
I have gone over the car multiple times with it idling. Whistling seems to be coming from 70mm SR Performance TB. Makes sense I guess. Noticed it was hanging open just a bit too. Cleaned it up and got it to close fully. Still have the whistle. But throttle doesn't hang up anymore and I seemed to have gotten my power back.
1/2" smaller belt should be here today, hopefully that will fix my belt shavings issue and put my tensioner back into range.
