Pumped to 20 psi held for 5 min no leaks. Coolant system is 15+ gallons big,.. you could let that thing sit pressurized for a week and it oozing coolant into the crank case and may never really see it on a pressure gauge. Unfortunately, the only correct test is to pull the oil pan off it with it pressurized if you want a definitive answer. ---- Now that your assumptions have been put into proper perspective ... Hopefully, like you said, it is possibly severe condensation from sitting,.. but if you want to know the actual answer,.. you have to do the check(s) properly and not guess based on short-sighted assumptions. The only correct answer if you want to test the engine for internal leaks is to do what I said above ( post#5 ) , otherwise, your just pissing in the dark and guessing at it. BTW: if the oil fill cap is that bad, you need to pull the engine cover (valve cover) off it and look at its underside as well, just to ensure your problems are not severe. - The whole top-end could be getting rusty, have seen it before, and if enough moisture gets into it (or even small amounts of coolant seepage), it can wipe out rod and main bearings + other components in a hurry.
