Found CARME at 1.0E-6 mbar. Beginning leak test.
Found leaks in the same location as before. Roughly 1~3E-8 mbar l second vs. base leak of 1E-12
Tightened right hand half of bolts to 120 Nm. No changes but leak goes up to 1E-10 mbar l second when tightening bolts closer to leak location, without He being sprayed.
Tightened bolts closer to leak to 140. Leak goes down to 1E-9 mbar l second
Tightened four bolts closest to leak to 170 Nm. Leak disappeared (<1E-11 mbar). Tested repeatedly all around CARME including left hand side of 600 COF flange. No leaks.
Vented. Installing jet target in the afternoon.
