Why would you want to pressure test a septic tank system? This is not recommended as most septic tanks are gravity systems and should not build up pressure. You can visually check your drop tank 5,000 - 10,000 gallons and your gray water tank 500 gallons for cracks. Make sure that all sewer line are on grade or you will have a vapor lock causing air to bubble in your toilet while draining water.

The EVAP system will then recycle these vapors so they can be burned in the engine. The EVAP port is a test port where a vacuum can be attached to check for leaks in the EVAP system.
If not controlled air pressure test tank may be broken.
