    No audible or visible leak = leave it alone.

    Are you monitoring pressure with the trailer disconnected? 72hrs plus is probably as good as it’s going to get without dunking the truck in a lake and seeing where all the bubbles come out of lol.

    ‘I’m completely happy with 72 hours. I feel I’ve found all the leaks I’m going to find for now. Since it has been awhile tracking things down and going from bleeding down fairly quickly to now I am feeling great about it. I am just curious where everyone else is at.

    Trailer connected or not it used to bleed down quickly no matter what. I had also checked glad hands and all up and down trailer and I knew that wasn’t the issue. Trailer is solid and much easier to check.

    2018 cascadia - several weeks if it's on level ground and no one is getting in or out. Secondary drops to about 70 psi, primary stays pretty much where ever it was.
