AustinONeal Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 (edited) i am about a wits end with it, i cant the that thing to seal off i gobbed silicone on it and it still leaked, so as a last resort i applyed a thing layer on the tank gasket and the valve housing and the gasket then put a seal around the out side of it... i think it was leaking where the screw holes are but im not sure. also it was leaking where the valve and the housing meet the big screw hole so i put some silicone and locktight around it too and if this dont fix it then i dont know what the hell im going to do anyone else have these problems and if i tighten the screws up alot it squishes out the gasket too!

[email protected] Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 worth a shot , also use that gasket maker shit very lightly. i mean it may be like a rig but hey if it works, it works....... i know if that problem was holdin me up i woulda tried everythin even welding LOL Quote
sheecandy Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 i made a gasket out of a thin piece of rubber didnt use any sealer no leaks as of yet use teflon tape for the threads Quote

AustinONeal Posted June 28, 2006 Author Report Posted June 28, 2006 no i put a litle bit of silicone on the threads Quote
s-540 Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 no i put a litle bit of silicone on the threads you need to rap the threads about 6 or 7 times with the tape to index it to the position you want it. you will probly have to do that a couple of times to get it were you want it. Quote
