Need some help from the experts. I picked up a replacement argoshield cylinder today (same as I have always used) and my parweld regulator on screwing down seems to be leaking where it attaches to the bottle.
I tried another regulator off my Clarke machine and it seals fine - on close inspection the male fitting in the regulators is slightly different and I wonder if the parweld one is not quite bottoming out in the bottle ?
So my question is are there different types of fittings ??? I tried swapping the male fitting from one to the other but the threads seem slightly different and unfortunately the gas supply hoses to the machines are also
Different so I’m a bit stuck for swapping them over.
