Brake pedal valve leaks a tiny bit.

Anyone have intel on the brake valve service for my 88 ORED.  ? 
Aired it up and my son could hear a slight hissing that changed with the pedal pushed.
Not a large leak and the system cycled near normal.
But it's in my list.
Thanks

Cycle the brake pedal several times and see if the leak quits. The treadle valve is a pain to change and you have to remove it to see if you can re-seal it. I put a new treadle valve in my 81 only to find out it will start leaking again if not used frequently.
