Leaking air?

I got my new 2006 Marzocchi Z1 sports (with ETA) about 4 weeks ago, I've done no hard riding with them! But, I think they're leaking air? :evil: I normally run 20psi (I like them soft) But yesterday they DEFINATELY wernt 20psi, so I tightned up the valve, let all the air out, put 20psi back in (Got a Marzocchi pump) + yet they're still NOT 20psi, far to soft to be, even though it said on the gauge, do I need new seals? And if so WHY already? I'm not sure if the ETA might have 4orked them up - mates rather sneakily turned it on, whilst I rode down some stairs and droped a 3 foot high wall (I no it's not huge but not good when you're restricted to 30mm) :evil:

    if the guage says 20 then that is what it is unless the guage is off.

    damaged ETA will not effect the feel.

    have you read the manual?

  • I've had 20 in before + it's ALOT harder than the 20 that's in now!
