Testing the air system on a 386.
The compressor was leaking in the crankcase and we would have never found it without this very valuable test.
It was loosing over 15 pounds in a minute.

But wait,.... (from the old site) those trolls from that other auto forum told me I was full of doo-doo when I tried to tell others about this same thing. lol


I am glad you found it. That is why I pressure test the whole engine and not just the CAC.

it reminds me that i need to make a video on it.
A video would be great. Did you see the bladders in the intake? Yeah, yeah, the football idea didn't work so well. LIve and learn I guess. By the way, if that test is doo-doo, I'll take more please. Lol.
+2 on the video for this test. i use a 4 inch cap for my test with a air valve in it :)just clamp it in place
