Since parking in October I've noticed the passenger side airbag loses pressure after a few weeks. Not a big deal. I finally got it it up on the stand offs that came with it (PO made some nice wooden blocks to prop under between the rear wheels). Took me awhile to figure out how to get these under there, the bottle jacks I bought (2 kinds) didn't go full height so I had to raise it in stages, the homemade blocks are 9" tall.

Anyway, I have shutoff valves at the bags, so I pumped them up to 80 pounds and shut off the valve. Now the passenger side bag is still firm, but the gauge is at 0. this would indicate the leak somewhere between the bag and the gauge (which is mounted on the dashboard) right?

Should I worry about this too much? I can always pump it back up when in use if it drops down.
