Spent the afternoon taking the valve assembly apart in the inside Electro Level 1 and teflon pipe doping the fittings in attemp to eliminate air loss. Upon re-assembly it used bubble snot to check for leaks and found a leak in the bottom of one exhaust solenoid at the holes where the pin wrench fits. I didn't take the valve apart just re-doped the valve housings to nipples. The exhaust valve has two threaded fitting holes marked 1 and 2 with #1 open and #2 connected to raise valve, just checking to make sure that is correct. How would the leak be in the pin wrech hole??? Anybody else ever see this or have any ideas? Trying to get it to hold air for days, not hours! All the other inside, outside and bags checkout, this is only remaining leak.
