    I had some extra stuff laying around the garage and here is what I came up with. As you can see this is stuff from Harbor Freight Tools.

    I got a reading of 10% leakage on all cylinders. The drain at the bottom of the water collector makes a nice pressure release to zero the meter at the base pressure.

    Nice work! 10% isn't bad at all.
