I think we have another troll here!
Wax tapers/candles used to be used to be recommended for testing positive pressure case seals. Now we use smoke matches, FGA's.

Safety matches?

Any form of ignition or flame is quite dangerous when checking for gas escapes.:38: Id recommend LDF or an electronic gas detector! :50:
