valve question

ok, so i got some new valves from perfectpoise on here and i love them! but when i have the front all aired up and the rear all aired up and i hit the switch to air up the rear the front drops, and if the front if the car is all layed out and i hit the switch to dump the front the rear end raises....this happened with my last set of valves to so i was just wondering why it does this. could it just be the wiring in my switch box? it doesnt really bother me i guess i was just curious as to why it does this.

could be the way you set up your valves do you have 4 or 8 valves?

i have 8, but they are on a manifold.

sounds like wiring issues man, possibly faulty switch box? what switches are u using and which ones r u using when u lay ur shit put and air it up? Maybe ur switches are wired backwards if u have , or use, one toggle for pancake or something......

yea, i figured it was a wiring problem with my switchbox...i got the switchbox from chassistech a couple years ago, so that probly explains it but i figured i'd ask anyway.

thanks guys

Sounds normal to me. when valves don't have backpressure from the tank, they feed air back to the tank. If you front is at 130 psi, as is your tank, and you fill up your back bags, and your tank drops to 120 psi, then your front bags will drop to 120 psi too. Thats the nature of a diaphram valve.

Edit: Re-read the first post... its a little more clear to me... sounds like a wiring issue as already stated.

sounds like the "see-saw" switch function, is it a certain switch that does that, or do they all seem to have a problem?
