Ford: MarkVIII suspension, dish washing, solonoid


Question
I have '97 Mark VIII and the front end sits low until the air pump fills the bags.  For a while it seamed like only one side was low but now the front end.  Would it be the solenoid or both air bags?  Is there an easy way to check?  Thanks in advance for your input and help.  Don

Answer
Don the best way to ck them is to get a spray bottle and fill it up with water and 12 drops of dish washing liquid and when they are all the way up spray the bags you will see bubbles if it is leaking and also spray the solonoid to see if it is leaking .if they are you can spend the money on the factory eqip. or now you can just replace them bag free real cheep .let me know what you want to do and i'll hook you up.
