I put my vote with the banjo fitting at the compressor exit. I had a
very similar problem and it ended up being those aluminum crush washers
described by others. It was an easy and satisfying fix. Check that
sucker for looseness.

Boy, Dennis, you sure have a twisted idea of fun! :)
Also, while you're at it, check the filter on the compressor as well.
If the output check valve is gummed up, the felt filter could probably
use a cleaning as well (gas works just fine...so long as you are not
smoking at the same time!).
BTW, flight #3 of Panda-Monium took place today...the squawk list is
getting smaller and the plane is getting faster.
Cheers,
