You cannot use the AirLift to pressure test.
It's the opposite. The Airlift creates a vacuum.
You can test for leaks after you empty the coolant by drawing a vacuum and waiting 5 minutes. If the vacuum holds then there are no leaks.
But if you're hunting for a leak, you need to put pressure in the system with coolant to physically see where the leak is happening.
Happy Boxstering,
