  1. While holding the blow gun nozzle firmly against the port in the transmission case, release the trigger.
  1. Wait 1-2 seconds.
    • A hissing noise may indicate a leak in the hydraulic passages. Hydraulic circuits that use scarf cut seals and/or air bleeds will have some normal leakage.
  1. Remove the blow gun from the port.
    • A sudden release of air pressure indicates the hydraulic passages are capable of holding pressure.
