My MCI 8 has an air leak in a valve? or some kind of contraption in the spare tire compartment. it only leaks when I release the emergency brake. so it's after the brake switch. the piece thats leaking has a round concaved face with about 5 holes in that area . since I don't have a manual I can't find what it is. air is coming out of those holes or posibly 3 holes that angle back towards the center. hope I'm being descriptive enough. is this part rebuildable or just replacable? and what is it's proper name? |

Sounds like a quick release valve. I had the same thing happen to me. Inside the valve, is a silicon gasket, bout the size of a 1/2 dollar. It is likely broken/cracked. I put electrical tape around mine to get her home.
