  When you pressurize the system you usually get fuel to the leak areas
so either it will bubble or leak on it's own, with a little pressure, or
the leak won't be bad enough to let any noticeable amount of fuel
out but will let air in.  It's sure worth a try though as leaky systems
always have plenty of air in the lines!
