      Why and how are you filling your nitro tank with CO2?

      And I just realized, how the hell was I able to read such gibberish?

        If you were to use co2 in a nitro tank, wouldn't that basically seal it's fate on the next hydro (ruin the inside of the tank)? oh yeah, and it leaks because you touch yourself at night.

          Yea, what the hell are you talking about man??? Filling a nitro tank with co2 would ruin the reg.
          Now let's pretend you're not insane and forget that you even said anything about filling an hpa tank with co2. Are you using your co2 tank on a classic or rt/retro/x/emag-valved mag? You can't run co2 into the latter. Only on a classic valve. That may be your problem.

            CO2 will not ruin the reg on a HPA bottle, I have done several conversions like that, and never had one problem (not even rehydroing the tank - another PB myth).

            I have always used an antisyphon tube though, so it could be that you are sucking a little liquid into the valve. My classic sputters for a couple of shots whenever I manage to get any liquid into it.

            Hope that helps.

              I stand corrected. It seemed to me that if you filled a nitro tank with liquid co2 it would deteriorate the regulator's internals really fast since they're not made to withstand liquid co2.

                    Well, I should be more specific, as I have not done this to every reg out there. However, I can vouche for the ACI BullDog II, the older CrossFire Regs, and the manifold type MaxFlo's. I've done over a dozen total, spread between those three reg. brands, and never had a problem with any of them.

                    And as stated before, touching yourself can make your mag leak, as well as various other things . . . .
