    Schroeder valve leaking after I shut off my truck

    I'm getting a very high pitch noise from my Schroeder valve and some fuel/bubbles after I shut my truck off. I think my Schroeder valve is bad as I've been bleeding my fuel system of air for the past 2 weeks as I fix my truck. Anyone know of the size/link to a replacement valve? Thanks :D

    Electrical/Battery Mystery???

    I am truly baffled at this point. I recently became a victim to bad batteries. Both batteries were within 3 years of age but my truck is not driven daily so I expected a little less than full life on the batteries even though a good battery should be okay with no use for months if stored...
