Lots of ways depending on what and where!
First two to try are using your ears, usually hissing or sucking sounds, secondly try the soapy water approach. Im assuming your talking about air leaking out and not probs with vacumn lines now? |

if you mean throttle body or inlet manifold leaks etc., spray carb cleaner around the seals with the engine running. If it speeds up, you've found a leak. |
