Hissing sound

From your description of the location of the hiss, sounds like the culprit is the switch: a leak has developed. Not surprising after 30+ years. 79 switches are a little different than the 77-78 Bird switches. You might even be able to purchase a remanufactured unitfrom a local auto parts store. Check with NAPA, etc. Keep us posted as to your progress. Tim
