Air Springs Replaced - popping sound revisited
Jeff, I certainly appreciate your thoughts.

It happens when I set the jacks to retract, before having some air in
the bags. Then I heared a popping in one or two of the bags as the
coach started to lift. This happend only a few times, after that, I
changed the start up procedure. Now when the coach rests on the jacks
I make sure the dump switch is off, I start the engine and let the
air build up and after a few minutes I raise the jacks slowly,
releasing the weight on to the filling bags. This way no mor popping.
I keep the coach inside a garage and will check the issue on our next
outing, which unfortunately will not be until early August.
As allways thank you
