Be sure to check your compressor for leaks. Either the vacuum or electric
compressors can leak out their intake port.
An excellent way I have found to locate very small, slow leaks is to inject a
little freon into the tank and test with a freon leak detector. That will
pick up very small leaks a couple of feet from the source and then beeps more
as you get closer to the leak. It has allowed me to locate leaks that I just
couldn't find with soap and water.

replace all the air hoses and connection fittings? It seams like that
wouldn't be very hard, and it would probably solve the problem. I know you
have all encountered this situation before - so I am open to advice. If I
do that, where would I get that hose stuff? ACE Hardware? >>
