Nipple problem.

You have a nipple problem huh...thats what breast surgery is for. O wrong kind of nipple problem. I wouldn't mess with tank regulaters, or nipples. Let a certafied air smith do work on it.

My buddy who i went pballin today with said he would show me and take it all apart with me, and clean it. I figured i could always head up to a local shop and have them do it too, but its better to know what your doing instead of just having it done for you.

Eh.. oil = bad sometimes.

There have been some reports of people putting oil in thier fill nipples to stop leaking, then go fill thier tank and have the oil combust. Just sayin ive read it somewhere, so maybe consider that.

Well it was only a drop, although that is all it could take to do it. I mean, my dad was there to help, but i see what your saying. Also, about the poster above this, i forget who it is, but im going to take it to a local PB shop and have them either fill it or fix it/fill it. I mean, it may just be the O-ring, and i figure i would just get about a dozen more, because they are only 50 cence each, although i doubt i will encounter this for a while. Better to be prepared though.

Well how long does oil stay there until it would evaporate?

Are you using Compressed air or CO2? I have never heard of any fires due to oil being exposed to either one of these. I have heard of fire resulting from industrial or medical grade oxygen having oil contamination. Placing oil in the valves is asking to attract more dirt and grime; although I doubt the likeliness of a fire or explosion. It would be advisable to have an air smith or another professional qualified in servicing high pressure containers to fix your leaking valves it will most likely save you money in the long run.

Ah...co2 tanks don't have fill nipples because they use a two way valve. The air goes in the same way it comes out. HPA tanks use a one way valve thats why theres a fill nipple. Since you don't know what your talking about I'll try to explain it to you. When a HPA tank is filled alot of friction is being built up, thats why the tank is warm after it is filled. If oil is in the nipple or leaks into the tank that friction could ignite the oil causing an explosion. How do you think matches work. the friction between the sulfur and little brown paper causes a chemical reaction making the match light. It would be the same thing with the oil. The friction could cause the oil to ignite.

Well, oil in it is useless anyway since it'll just get shot out. I do recommend you warn the guy filling it about what you did- just imagine your tank becoming a rocket- the valve isn't going to fly out but instead the gigantic tank is gonna shoot off like an RPG. Just make sure you loc-tite (or whatever you used) the holy living bejeesus out of it. And tell the guy, so he can point the tank toward the ground not toward his foot.
