I have a slow leak in the main bladder of my 7m. It has a one pump system if that makes any difference.

Anybody have some secret to finding where the leak is?

Also, whats the best material to patch the bladder if thats what needs to be done.

These are a few links to start with.

Spray the valves and connector hoses with dish soap first before starting to screw with the LE bladder.

Buena suerte
