Should hold for months. Get some soapy water, put air in the system, and
track down the leaks -- my first big leak was on the schrader valve on the
air tank itself. There is no pressure on the cylinder when the doors are
down so that is not the source of the leak.
On the pass cylinder, take it out, squirt some automatic tranny fluid or
power steering fluid in there, and turn it upside down and let it soak in --
might swell up the cup. Squirt some before the regulator to let it get to
all the solenoids and other cylinder to lube them up. Adjust the valves so
it takes about 2 seconds for up and for down.

Both the vendors have body parts and one of the most common to replace is
the outer door skin. Kim
