Hey Split, glad the car is fixed...bummer you had to remortgage your house

Sorry to thread Jack...but concerning the pressure tester. When you p-test your car, there's always air slowly coming out somewhere, right? I've done mine numerous times and I find it hard to find a leak unless it's a blatant leak somewhere cuz there's always gurgling through the crank, plus the noise of the air coming through the fitting sounds like, well...a leak. Just curious how obvious other people find it to spot leaks on their cars.

Yes, you will get a small amount of air bubbling thru the oil in the crankcase that should be ignored during the test. I open the oil filler cap to prevent presurizing the crankcase during the test. The PCV connection at the Y-Pipe should be capped during the test as per AWE instructions, else that can create wierd air flow sounds too.

If there is an intake system leak like an IC or popped hose, it will be quite obvious compared to the other sounds you are hearing.

Sounds like your doing it right
