PC holding a vacuum
    #19360573 - 01/02/14 08:24 PM (10 years, 28 days ago)

I have an AA921 PC that I have owned at least 15 years, maybe more. It has been run many hundreds of cycles, never a problem. Recently i had an issue where it leaked steam a little bit at one of the wingnuts. I spoke to someone at FP, where I originally bought it, wondering if it had finally failed somehow. He advised me to make sure it was totally clean around the seal. Even though it looked clean, I scrubbed both surfaces, and made sure the vent pipe was clean, etc. I also replaced the overpressure plug, which I had meant to do earlier but kept blowing it off. It was a little bit brittle when I removed it, so I'm sure it needed to be changed out.

Now when I run it, it doesn't leak steam anymore, but strangely, it holds a vacuum. The first time I ran it after the cleaning and service, I couldn't get it open. I took the weight off and surprisingly, I hear it sucking air in. I had let it cool overnight, and it was at room temp. I have a LFH, so I am opening it in front of the hood now.

I'm surprised it holds a vacuum. Anyone experience this before?
