Leaking CO2

[crboots]

Purchased a slightly used Kegerator and it is leaking CO2. Getting only one keg per tank.Any suggestions as to where the systems most frequently leak from? Once I find the leak is there a source for parts like gaskets etc, or do I just have to buy new components to fix the leak. My CO2 supplier claims I should get 10 kegs per fill.

Thanks,

John

John, use a soap/water solution and swab the pressure fittings and connections to determine where leak exists. Once identified, possibly reclamping or tightening a fitting may correct problem. If a new gasket is required, the type of gasket which exists now will determine replacement. What size cylinder do you have?
