Best way to find a leak on a pilot tube?

[Petefinny]

Hi Guys went to a house today which had been capped off by BG, they said there was a leak on the pilot tube of a baxi solo, first time i have come across this and wondered what was the best way to check for leaks on the pilot tube (permanent pilot), i nipped the tube up and sprayed it with leak detector spray and also put my Anton Gas Detector to it to check for any signs of leakage, all showed it was clear, the boiler is still off but wondered wether that was a sufficent course of action or should there be another check done. Thanks guys.

Only from cold too, or LDF will bubble as it boils......I also have leak detector kit for my FGA as you have, these pick up a fart from miles away!
