Default Pressure test veterans...couple of questions.

1. Did you get gurgling noises once you pressurize the intake ? Not air leaking noises..freakin gurgling sounds ???

2. I could have around 10 psi on the intake side for a while and eventually 3" coupler would back off intake with a pop. Did not seem to matter how tight I did the 3" hose clamp.

The good news it, I could not detect any leaks and if I am generating enough pressure at 10 psi to back coupler off , system must have good integrity.

Default 10psi is plenty bubbling is normal.. Sounds good. BTW use a nut driver on the couplar

allows more torque, but 10psi is PLENTY!
