I have an old style max flow (circa 96) that I got as part of a package deal. I just had it hydro tested and upon filling it for the first time I found that it leaked out of the fill nipple. So my question is, are fill nipples on old style max flows (reverse threaded bottle with on/off) special, and if I take it off can I fix it myself?
It looks very similar to the male end of a quick disconnect but I assume there are some bits and pieces inside so that it only take pressure in one direction?
I ended up getting a partial fill by turning the tank off before the guy vented the line and then putting a female quick disconnect with a stopper over the fill nipple and turning the bottle back on.
Thanks
