Toilet air system on the 97 WLWB

[g_man1146]

I have the same setup on my '99 LXi and after chasing a leak the system
holds for weeks at a time when not in use. The pressure does not drop
enough to cycle the compressor after all that time. I never had any
problems with any of the "push connect" fittings or the tubing but
found that the check valve that allows air from the 120VAC compressor
or the engine air into the toilet air supply was allowing air to escape
back into the axillary tank when the toilet air supply was at a higher
pressure than the axillary tank. A new brass check valve with a nylon
seat solved the problems.
