The good news is that I appear to have a leak free pitot/static system, but the bad news is my ASI seems to have gone loco. When I pull some vacuum on my static line my VSI indicates a climb, my altimeter increases, but my ASI seems to go up way too much. By the time my altimeter reads 500 feet, I'm doing 100 knots!? I know that the ASI reads the difference between the pitot and static system, but this seems crazy. I feel like maybe my thinking is wrong here and would like to get set straight before I contact UMA and make a fool of myself. Help please.
