Air Ride / Air bag question?

Hello, I have a 1972 GMC truck on air ride suspension and the other day I noticed when airing it up the driver side rear bag was sluggish airing up causing the truck to sit uneven in the rear. it was getting air just not enough to match the other side. Does anyone have any suggestios on how to adjust? is it possible i have an air valve that could be dirty and needs cleaned out? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

I would recommend checking the line for any kinks... from there I would remove the line and bag to check it for any restrictions. After those are confirmed to be clear... time to dig into thr valve assembly to check it for restrictions.

Also check to see if the bags are tied together in the rear. My driver side front did the same thing when I had the gauge lines t'd together.
