I have a used 3000 psi 88 ci Tank. I just had it hydro'd today. I also had it filled. It is leaking air out of the little hole at the top of the reg. Whats wrong with it?

Thanks for the help

Pin valve is leaking. Put it on a marker and you won't lose more air.

Write to PMI and get a new pin valve seal. It's a neoprene washer that goes on the pin, inside the valve body. You can fix it yourself by unscrewing the reg from the EMPTIED bottle, remove the hex plug in the back of the valve, remove the pin and replace the seal around the pin. Put it all back together.

...or have your proshop do it for a few bucks, which is what I suggest you do...
