Brief Description: Checked Right Fuel Tank for Leaks
Had not yet done this, so before installing on the wing wanted to make sure no leaks. I hooked up the valve and caps provided with the Vans leak kit. Put a balloon on the vent line and pumped some air into the tank. Again the balloon would not seal 100% but was able to get positive air in as evidenced by the air leaking thru the cap in photo #1 below. I used soapy water all over the tank and found no evidence of air leaking other than at the cap and around the balloon.
Fuel Tank Cap leaked some air. . .
but found no evidence of leaking any place else when covering the seals with soapy water
