Hi,

Either the pressure tester is bad, or you have a large leak. When the system is full, is there any evidence of a leak?

Here is a link that explains how to test it. See if there is anything you are missing.

Also, here is another link you may find helpful to locate/repair a leak.

Let me know exactly what is happening so I can better help. Also, let me know if the system has any coolant in it, and if the pressure tester is fully seating.

Take care,

Joe
