Shock pressure falling

[Jerry126]

Over the last couple of trips with the Stallion my shock pressure will drop within 10 minutes. Has anyone else had this issue? I would appreciate advice on how to fix the problem. Jerry126

</div>Pump it up to 50 lbs and leave it over nite. Sometimes the lines will leak and the high pressure resets them.

I'll have to try that. Mine leak down also. Thx Rick

Tried it. Started with 50lbs at night and in the morning it was down to 34lbs.

I was told to crank it up to 100, I did and it worked.
of course drop it down before a ride other wise it may be very stiff.

</div>I was just going to recommend the same thing to him. Like you said make sure to drop it back before riding.

I'm going on a ride now, I'll try it when I get back. Thx Rick

Well, that didn't work. I ran it up to 100 and the next day it was down to 88. Ran it up to 100 again and it went down to 85. Backed it down to 30 and the next day it was 18. Any other suggestions?

</div>It may be the dump valve leaking. Try pumping up over normal a few times and dumping. I loose 3-4 pounds from day to day, has always been that way.

you might try spraying and light soapy water spray at the compressor line fitting behind the rear seat and check if you have a leak there you will see bubbles to try and find the leak
