I did the Mity Vac thing on the tank and the locks separately and found pretty much what you expect....tank hold great (lots of pumping to get to 20") and the locks leak. It hasn't been a big enough problem to tackle yet and will probably do it in conjunction with the regulator.

Also, thanks for the info that when the mechanics are in good shape the vac holds for a long period of time. Please excuse my skepticism when it comes to vacuum but I have had more experience than I wish to remember with high vacuum equipment on lasers and deposition equipment.
