Last week, we closed the IV's left wing. I have read a great deal about repairing leaks, however, not alot of info regarding the pressure test itself. It seems there may be a better alternative to the factory suggestion of a 1-2 lbs of positive pressure (or a vacuum) and a balloon. Any suggestions? Craig Gainza
