Over the winter (yes I know it is June now) I rebuilt the Closet module. (looks nice btw) and had the air lines and control valves all moved over and tucked into the galley. did not unhook anything.
finally got things back together and we are heading out in 10 days for this years family vacation. rear won't hold air. I did find that the water separator had cracked so replaced that with one I had on hand.
Rear drops to zero in less then 2 hours.
started at each bag with soapy water and worked back to pump. Just happened to hit top of the valve with a bit of water and PRESTO!
Now can see the hair line crack on the top. can I glue that? would a simple 2 part epoxy hold? like JB weld?
or is this a part that can be bought at a local truck shop. Some of the valves on the rig are blue this one is brass colored.
I don't have time for shipping anything it takes more then 10 days to get stuff into Canada.

Once you replace everything that is attached to something else. It will all be fixed.
