Operating pressure pump running engine off 36psi, engine running 29 psi. So one could suppose that from the residual press rating, the system will leak down quicker than overnight.

Now I don't know if this helps, but I need your expertise. I'll be sending you a PM soon.

Thanks BG. If you need my "expertise", you're really in trouble.
