Re: Leaky Valves

Soapy water is great for solving this problem!

Get a cup of water, mix in a little liquid soap, and drip it over all of your pneumatic connections with your fingers. Don't use too much-- you only need a little. Turn on the air, and watch as all of the leaky connections blow lots of soap bubbles!

We got our system from 40psi to 120 using this method.
