Air activated Silent Choice

Has anyone run down where the factory Air activated Silent choice leaks. Mine leaks down in about 10 min

My previous boat had a leak at the small relief valve below the pump. Took it apart and cleaned, then never another problem. Other than that, just start checking the fittings and the cyls. with soap and water holding the pump on.

Mine does also, I thought that is how it was supposed to work. I guess I will look for leaks.

Yeah I took the little pop-off valve out and replaced it with a small pipe plug to see if that was causing it, no good. Are the Cyls hard to rebuild, or should I switch to electric

I don't believe they are rebuildable.

Last boat had the air system. Current one has the electric. Love the electric.
