300 miles from Houston. Trying to figure out if I really have to be there.
Thanks. Been a lot of fun.
Well, you can't miss SCC in October.

Last year was first I'd missed but due to mechanical issues on FJC and incomplete 80.
Love Superlift and only a 4 hour drive, so will be there, even if a day trip only.

Monster Valves
My twelve year old daughter had to upload these after fear I was going to have a meltdown, having spent an hour on iPhone ( multiple security processes on Google Account, new YouTube account ) only to result "Upload Failed".
Video quality is crap.
Anyhow, not mounted, so the times are apt to swap for deflation and inflation. From 35psi to 0 psi and back.

With dual stems, one being the Monster Valve, can hang gauge from smaller while airing up, or down, a timesaver in and of itself.
Installation wasn't too bad and they claim it can be done on mounted wheel, but I wouldn't. Hardest part was cutting the threads at 90 degree angle, since a t handle won't fit in.
Be most appreciated, by me, at the end of the day before the long trip home.
Here's how to do the fenders!

First day back after epic trip to USVI, PP80s been sitting, untouched, since last Monday or Tuesday.
Having a brake pressure issue I've yet to experience. Very, very spongy.
No leaks. Most everything is new and plenty of fluid in the resi.
Don't think anyone's trying to kill me by tampering with, but I may be wrong, Still no evidence of any fluid loss.
Any clues?

Brake booster? I was experiencing same thing. Replace booster and problem was solved.

I'm all about replacing components, but found a thread (iPhone is acting freakishly weird, or would link. Stuck on 4G and you'd think in BFE, but not) discussing the check valve.
Think it could be that simple? Is sitting for any length of time, them experiencing issue an indicator of check valve or booster?

Are you talking about the old bald guy or the younger bald guy?
I'd always reserved that sentiment for you, sir, so not sure how the hair, or lack thereof, nor age relates to.
What do I need to correct the brake issue?
Found easier to email CDan with part or part numbers, instead of "here's my symptoms, send me the cure" type inquiries.
By the way, St. Thomas was epic in every proportion.
Can't wipe the chit eating grin off my face.
I wish I could knowledgeably answer this question, but I don't know. New boosters are expensive so you could do what I did and buy a known good used one and see if that solves your problem. If so, then you can shell out the cash for a new one. If not then you have a cheap spare in case it does go bad in the future. I actually have a spare sitting in my storage unit in San Antonio and if you want to borrow it I can get it shipped to you. Let me know.

Appreciate the offer, Jon, but I have a disease, as you know. Hahaha.
Considering it began after a brief period sitting, will replace the check valve, first. If no change, booster's next.
