I have a '77 coach with the ElectroLevel 1 system, I think the Dana compressor and the small accumulator tank. With the coach running the compressor cycles every 10 minutes and runs for 10 to 15 seconds. The air bags hold as they should. The only leak I can find is at the short red line that runs from the compressor head to the check valve below the accumulator tank. I have soap bubbles at both ends of that line. As the pressure switch is sensing a pressure drop, does that mean the check valve is leaking? Presumably the air cannot leak back through the compressor, thus I am getting leaks at the line fittings between the compressor and the check valve.

Is the check valve a standard item or a Jim K item? How about the plastic line and its fittings?

Thanks for guidance.
