The closest shop that has a leak detector unit is in San Jose and they were $250 for the test. We "think" we might have found the source of the leak and have tried to seal it. It is supposed to rain this weekend so should be able to tell then if it's fixed.
Thanks Terry. It looks like we will probably try to make it back home before addressing the leak issue if it continues. Florence is about 3-4 hours from us and will keep this info close.
Thanks to everyone who added input.
Now in sunny (thank goodness) weather,
Brona and Thomas
