With the air system fully charged (about 125 psi), turn off the engine, release the parking brake, and hold the brake pedal down (fully applied). After the initial pressure drop stabilizes, the air pressure should not drop more than 3 psi in one minute for a straight truck (4 psi for a combination). A greater loss means there is a leak that must be repaired.
