I have a 77 pb with ElectroLevel I. The driver's side air bag will leak down in about 3-4 days, while the passenger side stays up.

I finally got around to installing the air bag cut-off vavles which I have had for a couple of years. Now with the valve off, it takes about a week to leak down. So it appears I have a slight leak in the solenoid and in the bag.

I'm trying to figure out now if I need to replace the bag or is this normal? Using soapy water does not show any leaks. I've heard of an "O" ring in the bag. Where would this be? Does the bag nut seal against this ring?

Inquiring mind want's to know! Cool
