Boost leak test with meth kit?

Quick question, if I do a boost leak test with my meth line hooked up on the UICP with the pressure from the test will air push back into the tank? Or does the pump stop that from happening?

What is the recommended way to boost leak test with a meth kit installed?

Pull the nozzle and put in a 1/8 npt plug from Home depot to do the test.
If you have a solenoid you dont need to plug anything just do the test.

..ok

THe pumps have built in check valves + you should have a solenoid valve in addition. No need to disconnect fitting, if you are worried just get do the home depot 1/8npt plug recommendation
