John: I had a similar experience when doing IFR testing up at Rocky Mountain Avionics in Kalispell after the WAAS upgrade. It took them a long time to isolate that the actual fitting was leaking and they replaced the fitting. This was not obvious and caused all kinds of delays.  If you can isolate the lines in question from the fittings and pressure test lines only and rule out the lines then you might have a better chance of finding the culprit.

I am having trouble with leaking Pitot system  on my IVP.  Attempts to perform IFR cert for first flight  indicate that leaks in the standby altimeter and airspeed indicator are producing 750 fpm leaks -- not acceptable.
