Understood. I hate those darn washers. If the seal is not tight, you will lose all the gas in short order, ask me how I know. All the years I have been in the hobby, one thing I learned very quickly, never adjust equipment or add something new to the system before a business trip. Always test before putting it into the production environment.

Murphy is always looking to make an appearance.
