So imagine you had two separate tubing systems connected to two separate releasers, one for each system. One tubing system is a brand new wet/dry system(300 taps) that gets meticulously checked throughout the season for leaks and is capable of holding high vacuum. The other is an old wet line system(up to 1200 taps) that isn't very tight and tends to leak a fair bit throughout the season. The second will be replaced/repaired in the future.

My question is, how would you plumb one correctly sized vacuum pump to these two releasers and tubing systems so that the new system can meet its full potential and not have vacuum parasitized by the old leaky system?

get a pump with a lot of CFM and spend some time during the season walking the lines.
