HELP! My Airmatic repair created new problem

Thank you for all the help over the past years in posting your solutions - they have made my life much easier! I replaced my right front about 18 months ago and my left front strut with Arnott struts this past weekend. The first repair went off without a hitch. In both cases, only the side with the bad strut bottomed out and would not refill. AFTER I replaced the driver's side (left) front strut last weekend, the car raises normally and drives fine, but BOTH sides will be bottomed out in the morning (or after about 6-8 hours). I do not want to burn out my compressor while I am trying to chase down the problem. Today, I exposed the compressor and left strut but could not find any leaks with the very high-tech soapy water test. Any ideas???
