Just wondering an apporximate tank fill time?

Hello All,

I bought a Kit III Chassis Tech Air suspension kit some time ago for my mx6. Put the tank, compressors, and valves on a wooden platform so it would look nice in my trunk, only to find that every fitting leaked air from my lines being at too tight of angles.

And that's where it sat for 2 months. I really had no desire to work on it in the mean time... Just pulled it back out and redesigned the whole platform.
This time, I want to bench test it to make sure this thing holds air and doesn't leak.
Specs are 5 Gal. Tank hooked to 2 DC2000 1/4hp compressors. I have a battery to power everything up, however I don't really want to take the extra time to hook the seloniod up for the compressors... So I've just been running everything in short spurts to avoid burning the compressors up (45 sec or so)

In that 45 sec, I have almost no pressure coming out of any lines (I unhooked the line coming out of the water seperator to see if any PSI built) I don't know If The compressors are not on long enough, Or if I got a huge ass leak I just can't hear over the compressors. Again, I'm not really looking for 100psi, Just want enough to put some pressure on the lines to see if they leak.

Any kind of Help would be appreciated


Adam
