Look through my post on driving it off a cliff. good info in there.

Also a smoke test wont always reveal a leak. My vacuum reservoir had a crack that only showed up when there was vacuum and never when there was pressure. They typically crack on the underside which wont show in a smoke test only when there is vacuum.
heres my old thread (s) covering this issue
