Hi group,

Got back from a weekend trip and noticed the bus leaning to the left
rear. Air tank gauges on dash show 150 lbs air but bus starts leaning
and loosing air within minutes of turning off engine. Have to start the
engine to get it level to set it up for leveling jacks.

Where do I start to look?

Sounds like an airbag(s) with a leak.

My friends 83 had a gusher of a leak--got so bad, wouldn't even stay
inflated even with engine running.

Thanks, Stephen,
I also wonder if the air bag leveler could have a leak.
