It is true that all the manuals show this test, but I've never seen one that 
leaked this way enough to make any difference at all.  

I hear other people complaining about leaky cold start valves, too, but I've 
never seen one myself. I suspect that most of these cases are more a matter of 
the engine running rich and the CSV just automatically getting the blame, but 
that doesn't mean that it never happens, just that it's less common than some 
people think.
