I would think that would be substantial enough to find with soapy water.

I know where mine is but it is a ***** to get to and in reality needs the line from the front passenger bag to the bulkhead replaced but hoping I can get by with just redoing the cut lines. I really need to just make a section or so of hard line by, at least, the engine bay.

Been using compressed glass cleaner.
I think my leak is either in my solenoid or Legris push-to-connect fitting under my horn body.

Just so I do not clog up the other threads with this, it has a pic of my car, and I really have no other updates I will put this here.

I mentioned posting pics up from my buddies funeral, unfortunately in a town this small there was no where to get them all in a pic together so here is what I have. His brother asked anyone that could to bring their vehicle, I will just post up the decent ones, lol. A lot of people came from out of town and didn't bring anything and others, I guess, couldn't handle the humid ass day with no A/C.

This first pic is one of my buddy who died's truck. It a 67 Toyota Stout with an LS. He drove it all over to shows and just recently completed the power tour in it.

Read it wrong, lol.

I heard one guy talking to someone else outside that he had met Von a couple of times at different shows but it was never really anything other quick saying hi or head nod but when he heard he died he felt like he needed to come to the funeral to pay his respects. Pretty cool his work and name had that effect on people.

It was also the first time most people had been his shop even though they were friends with him.

Thanks for taking time to post those pics Derek. With the loss of your guy, It brought a lot of great friends together. Those are some nice builds.
Thats why we gotta keep in touch. You just never know when your card will get pulled.
" May VON Rest In psssssssh, laid out and body dropped"!!!
