It would take me that long to go through the $8 red tank from Home Depot.

I also use the little red tanks from the hardware store. One lasts me a long time, like a couple of years.

Anyone have a spare regulator I could possibly borrow to help me narrow this down? I am going to see if Hawkeye can take a look at mine when I get refilled, or if they sell rebuild parts like a diaphragm.

Wondering if force carbing at 50psi has had anything to do with this :?: :?: :?:

I'm pretty sure I have a spare regulator. I can check when I get home

I might have one that's really crusty and old, but not my first choice. Going to get my current reg manufacturer and search for a rebuild kit tonight.
