Re: [A/S] Elusive Leak Making me NUTS !!!
I too had a leak problem - they can be SO frustrating! Mine turned out
to dried caulk where the sewer vent pipe goes thru the skin. There is a
pretty aluminum thing over the joint for appearanvce only. Take out the
screws and heavily seal that plastic pipe/skin joint and replace the
trim. I also put a small aluminum cover looped over similar to a rain
stop over a fireplace chimney cover. Stopped the leak. You will likely
find your leak over a ways from where the water eventually shows up. On
an older model you may also find a loose or missing rivet. Thr middle
70s were really "flexible fliers". Good hunting! Gene
