    Flatline slowly leaking

    I fill my tank and after about 2 days it's completely empty. The tank is turned off and i have no clue where it's leaking from. i don't hear any hissing noises at all.

    Is this a simple o-ring problem or is this a little more complicated?

    Get it filled and throw the tank in a bucket of water.

    Find the leak.

    Or fill it and listen.

    Mine was leaking from the fill nipple area. I took it apart, cleaned it.. re taped it. But I haven't had air to test it yet.

        yes, that will work, thats what they do for hydro testing pretty much, except i believe they use more pressure

          if you dont feel like dunking your tank in a bucket o water you can use a mix of dishsoap and water and watch for bubbles. Could aslo retape and fill and see if it empties in a couple days.
