I'd do the springs and solenoid valve and go from there, if you do have a small leak then eventually it will burn out the compressor. You may save a bigger expense by doing those now.

Exactly my thoughts Ian. If the compressor is running more than normal to compensate for a leak it will eventually knacker it. I had an indy have a quick look at the bags and he couldnt see any leaks but the chap from Arnott said 99% of leaks are caused by the bags.
