FINDING AIR LEAKS

1. Inflate the air springs to 30 PSI (2.1BAR).
2. Spray all connections with a solution of liquid dish soap and water. Wait
30 seconds and check for bubbles which indicate leaks.
3. Check the air pressure again after 24 hours. A 2-4 PSI
(.14-.28BAR) loss after initial installation is normal. Retest
for leaks if the loss is more than 5 PSI (.34BAR).
4. After checking for leaks, deflate the springs to the minimum
pressure required to restore the system to normal ride height.

FIXING LEAKS ON BARBED FITTINGS

1. If there is a leak at the Schrader valve, tighten the valve with a valve core
tool.
2. If there is a leak at any barbed fitting, cut the air line 1 1/2" (38mm)
behind the fitting. Use a pair of pliers or locking pliers to twist and pull
the air line off of the fitting. Do not cut the air line lengthwise at the fitting
because this could nick the barbs, likely causing it to leak.
3. Reinstall the air line and the air line clamp if the fitting has one. Make
sure the air line covers all barbs.
