I have a question regarding a leak down test.  I bought a kit from Vintage smoke few years back and have misplaced the instructions with respect to pressure drop over time.  I searched this site, but did not find anything definitive regarding values.  I have a 75 RD350, wanted to know if anyone could provide pressure, acceptable drop over "X" minutes.

Thanks, Brian

Pressurize to 6lbs. Any loss more than a 1lb / minute is a problem.

Thanks for the response.  I had a 1 psi drop over 5 minutes so looks like I am good to go for now.

Still could be a leak though, mine sat for 15 minutes and didn't even lose a half pound. I'd look closely with some soapy water and a spray bottle
