I had a trans cooler line go so the car is sidelined again (it never ends). I'll replace it tonight and then get back to the suspension issues.

I did have a chance to load the back end of the car last night and I did not sense any movement or lifting of the car. I then put it on the hoist running, disconnected the adjuster and moved the value up and down. I could not see any movement in the suspension, which isn't surprising since I assume it's at full drop but I thought I might see or hear something. Nothing. For what its worth, when I bounce the rear by jumping up and down in the hatch area I get about 6 inches of travel, and good dampening

Question: How fast does the system change the car ride height?

Thanks for the points, with respect to Bob's comments:

1. I have not bleed it from the control valve yet; the information I read suggested that the system would more or less bleed itself as the car is driven. But I will try it, I'll put the car on the hoist, engine running and open the bleeder with a vinyl tube attached and see what I get.
2. I put in a new adjuster and the arm and clamp are fine.
3. Hoses and lines are now fine after my work.

With respect to buckwheat's comments I will have a look at this area.

Thanks,


John
