Re: Leaking piston?

Just to throw out some help with locating a leak in one of your fittings, or quick connectors. You want to hit them with AirTech, it comes in an aresol can, and the stuff is dry. You shine a flash light on it, and it's reflects a jet of color up in the air from where the leak is. With AirTech there are no worries with getting a liquid on the electronics. I was told about this stuff from a mentor on my team, I still haven't gotten it yet, but he told me it was the stuff to use for finding leaks. If you can't get AirTech, windex is the other good stuff, it makes lot and lots of little bubbles where ever a leak is. Hope you find your problem.
