Myron, the Matco valve has o-rings that have a history of leaking. Look up at
the valve on the firewall and I suspect you will find the origin of the leak.
If so, you will need to pull the valve and replace the o-rings or send it to
Matco for a mod if it is the older model.
Cheers,
Frank

That isn't good.... Does it only leak when it's set? The reason I ask is if the
plane is still flyable to get it home.

Mine leaked pretty good and it was brand new. I ended up replacing the O rings
and that took care of the problem.

Getting home was a trick because I could only turn right on the griund, (except
high speed) but it worked out. This morning I did one of the most physically
challenging things of the entire build which was worm myself under the panel
around the stick and prop up on a kidney braced with a rib with both arms intertwined
into the cables and rudder pedals, sweat and brake fluid seeping into
my eyes, to remove the lines from the devil spawned valve and join the cable
ends together with spare male male through wall fittings I just happened to have
. Expecting a friend coming by I get a phone call so I manage to flex my man
boob enough to push my phone up high enough to pluck the phone out of my shit
pocket with my teeth and tap answer with my elbow only to be asked by my local
Chevy dealer if it was a convenient time to discuss my future automotive needs.

Where's the "Like" button Myron?
I've been under the panel for the last 2 months finishing things up. You've described
it perfectly.
