I just traded a setup with an RTvalve with lvl X and here in Colorado it was fine, no leak. It went to Pa and it now has a slow leak from the bolt. Could this be from the altitude change? I imagine it is but just wanted to find out from those that have much bigger brains than I.

It could be, but more than likely a tempurature change. ;)

tell the purchaser to put some oil in it. If that doesnt stop it go down one carrier size.

Altitude change may only effect it 1 or 2 psi - seems very doubious to me that that small of a change would effect the operation in a platform running off of hundreds of psi.
