That 767 pitot static test took me 4 hours instead of 45 minutes

I kept getting a leak on the static side and swapped every fitting before I realized the test set itself had a loose connection. The whole time I was blaming the airplane and it was my own gear. Has anyone else chased a ghost leak like that for hours before finding it was something dumb?

Caught a podcast the other day where this guy was talking about how that's pretty much the standard pattern for most things in life. Always some little twist right when you think you got it figured out.
