I have crimped a 66.7 geberit copper elbow and the fitting must of moved slightly before I pressed to crimp it is about 10mm off the insert gauge, I am fully aware that this will void the guarantee on this fitting but how likely is it to leak???
 
You will be fine wouldn't want to go more than 10mm tho
 
Thanks for quick reply will be putting an air test on soon if it passes that what's the likely hood it would fail under water?
