George, Mine has a VERY small air leak at the top of the cylinder right at
the ram.With the door closed I sprayed soapy water and didn't find it
because it was so small. "Snoop" is what I found it with . I haven't found
anything better yet. I also use it to detect propane leaks in my RV. Pull
the boot down and spray it all over the cylinder and wait, it maybe only a
small bubble every 20 seconds or so but it will drain the air after a day or
so. Hope that helps..

Can air leak out of the system through the door cylinder if the doors are
not
operated? I did not think so but maybe that would explain my air loss
problem also.
