Procedure

  1. With engine off, remove the plug from the test port on the lockoff closest to the EPR.
  2. Connect a pressure gauge capable of reading inches of water column.
  3. There should be no pressure between the lockoff and the EPR with the engine off.
  4. If pressure rises with the gauge installed, the lockoff is leaking and must be replaced.
