I should have replaced the evap when i did the entire system,,, What was driving me nuts was the fact it could hold nitrogen forever and not loose any PSI. My guess is the change in temp was enought to open the void and let the gas leak out???

When i did the converson,, i even isolated the evap and charged with nitrogen,, it did not leak.

Nitrogen is not for testing for leaks.. It's used to purge the system of old freon and other gases, prior to pulling the vacuum.

BTW, check your PMs.
