I've been to Kungsleden and hiked a few days in Sarek until we had to turn back. My main hiking experience is with hiking in Israel, so Sweden and especially Sarek is a whole different game for me...
Based on the information available in your current question. There should be hoses attached to the three 'holes' you don't regularly plug. Inspect all the hoses from all the 'holes', repair or rep...
