Re: Leaking air
Are you being generous enough with the teflon tape at the thread sealings? We taped the crap out of our pneumatic system, and combined with checking for flat cuts, our simple pneumatic system with a compressor, 1 air tank, and 2 solenoids with 3 pistons (kicker clutch and shifters) can hold the tank above 100psi overnight.
