"pressure test sure is handy a

"pressure test sure is handy about now. if you properly installed seal kit, what is left? dont overlook the obvious. could be as simple as fill/level plugs."

Tks Scott If I remember right I think I got new seals for the plugs and replace them. Its be a while since I install the kit. How much pressure do you use when you pressure test? As I didn't test it I thought I had it fixed.

"pressure & vacuum testers

"pressure & vacuum testers would cost you more than having it done. pressure test at about 12 -14 psi if you can figure a way. look for bubbles with soapy water. is it losing fluid? how much time elapsed since re-seal? propshaft, water pump, shift shaft, plugs all resealed? be carefull not to overpressure. drain before testing"
