    Flatline Leaking from Fill Nipple

    Bought a used one and it's leaking from the fill nipple.

    Can I fix this ?

    Thanks

      buy a new fill nipple or take the one you currently use off and clean it and make sure the o-ring inside is good

      Good to know that somone of Tom's status seeks "relief" from a sport he helped create. A sport now ruled by a single patent.

          i had the same problem a few weeks ago...

          i got a fill nipple ('bout $10 locally), and replaced it...no more leak...

          but, like dub said...take the nipple off, push the piston out (it sits inside the nipple...and it has a flat head top...you can turn this for HOURS)...use a straight pick or a toothpick to push it out...

          clean the inside of the nipple good, clean the piston good

          put some teflon tape on the threads, and tighten it back up
