Maybe try that - free and easy to do...

Thank you!!!! Mine was more of a trickle than a slow drip, but exercising the valves helped considerably. That, plus warming up the under bed storage area which was probably still in the teens when I de-winterized, in addition to running the hot water, seems to have cured the leaks. Interestingly....the valves only leaked when in the bypass position.
