Just fitted a new set of front Airbags to my '92 SC 400, after firing it up the bags pumped up so I went for a run....and that's where they stayed, the ride was harsh and does not feel like an air suspension.Also, are'nt they suppose to de-flate -if left overnight ?
Any suggestions ?

If they deflate overnight, then they are leaking.

Try pulling a battery terminal off for a while to reset all the computers. They drive it for a few minutes and see if it settles.

Have you replaced any of the front bushes? as they can create quite a hard ride if old and perished.
