    Yes. If you own the truck, get a spray bottle with soap and water. Spray all the air hoses and airbags, the leak should not be hard to find.

    As long as you can maintain at least 90 psi while running, you shouldn't have a problem getting to your destination. Was that leak-down with both the red and yellow valves closed?

    That's too much. Where does it sound like it's coming from? Is it only when red and yellow valves are pressed in?
