Or maybe if you you have a good cigar you can spend a little time under there puffing smoke around some areas your not able to soap test easily. Sounds crazy but it might work, maybe... I believe you said it goes down very fast so air has to be moving around somewhere 
Oh and it is such a joy crawling around under there, I know!

Thanks. So there are smoke machines that won't harm/contaminate the system?
Also swapping R to L is a good idea. Electronics or air....concept is the same.

Well, according to my Snap On salesman, yes, different types of chemicals for different applications... It is a nifty technology but I have never actually used it myself.

FINALLY found my leak...
https://www.dropbox.com/s/3izb1vy4bw...0Leak.mp4?dl=0
This is in the 3/4" hose from the ping tank to the R front, forward bag. Whew....will have it fixed in a few days. A strong and skinny neighbor will help me pull the hose. Then take to NAPA for replacement. Also have one slowly leaking R rear bag .... just worn out. Solenoids have been OK so far.
THANKS for all the help����

Good for you. Air bags are not too bad to replace and rather inexpensive also. Suggest that you start soaking the threads on it now with a penetrant if you are going to replace it.
