       See FAA  AC43.13 -1B CHG1 Page 12-21 This gives acceptable data for the
      leak rate: Static system, apply a vacuum equivalent to 1000'and hold for 1
      min, max leak 100'.  Pitot system, apply pressure to 150 kts hold for 1 min,
      max 10 kts leak.

      From: thomas sargent <sarg314@gmail.com>
      
      Does any one know an acceptable leak rate for the Pitot system?  Mine is
      pretty bad right now.  If I pressurize the pitot so that airspeed shows
      about 130kts, it leaks down about 7 or 8 kts/minute.
      
      What is an acceptable leak rate in terms of kts/minute (or should I say
      minutes/kt)?
      
      I should say this is not an IFR plane.
      
      Thanks,
