I use oil to check for air leaks. On or two drops of oil and air bubbles will show from the leak

Why not just get a can of what Ernest Rowe uses at FX-USA?

A can last a VERY long time!

Years back I couldn’t get a FX gauge to seal. Friend suggested a crush washer. I hand fashioned one from copper pipe. Been holding pressure since.

These are just the metal screws i had checked. I’ve got dozens more to check
I received a block (not impact) to repair today, someone has used a detergent solution to try an find a leak, although all the major parts are made from stainless, every one was corroded rock solid, it took several attempts of applying heat and penetration oil before I finally got them out. No damage done but completely avoidable.

Hi All, I've produced a couple of basic videos on Impact leaks. It's an experience of what I've learnt about trying to find these damn leaks. You really need the right tools to work on these types of rifles. Check them out, might help somebody.
