i have replacement air shocks on my 89 brougham. the shocks seem to hold air for maybe 24 plus hours then they deflate. i have checked the lines and everything else that is possible. oh i 'am filing them manually, but i do have the self inflate compressor under the hood, but they leak if filled from there also. any and all sugestions will be helpful.

Assuming the shocks are not the cause, the plastic lines tend to get brittle with age. Easy to find which one if you fill a spray bottle with soapy water, and spray the fittings. The one that bubbles is the culprit.

Valve stem might be a culprit. But as Dave pointed out, those lines do get brittle with age.

thanks for the suggestions. changed 1 of the lines 2 days ago and the shocks are still holding air. how it conts.
