It really doesn't do any good if you can't hold a vacuum. Need to get it to 20 to 25 inches of vacuum, and have it hold. Problem with trying to use it as a diagnostic aid is that the compressor and the venturi vacuum make so much noise that you can't hear the leak.

The sealing and bleeding the system is just one of the things I'm currently working on. The little manifold that's part of the coolant tank is a little cute for my tastes. It will be simplified by drilling out the plastic sections and run longer lengths of rubber hose, I think. Fewer connections mean less chance of leaks.

I've got leaks.:ah:
