    Help!!! I have a leak

    I just got done oiling up. I screwed in the tank, got a few shots off and gas started comming out of the gas relief hole. I tried backing off the reg knob, but all that did was slow down the leak. What did I do wrong??

    I should mention that it is the hole across from the gas line inlet (asa?), not the one in the reg. It's stopping the thing from gassing up.

        the leak is comming from the valve body, right across from the inlet (side vent). I already changed the tank o ring. That popped earlier.

          Try the o-ring trick, drop a o-ring in the asa then screw in your tank.

            The problem is in the valve, not the asa, as I first thought. I think I may have blown a valve pin o ring or two. I oiled the crap out of them and that seemed to stop most of the leak. I also put in a spare seat o ring. Maybe that helped. I hope I'm on the right track. Thanx for the asa suggestions, guys.
