Co2 and leaking tap?

[renshaw]

Ok I've brought a plastic keg.
I used a 8g co2 bomb and soon as it went in the tap started to slowly drip constantly until i poured of two pints (which removed all the pressure because i obviously couldn't leave it dripping out.


Any suggestion in relation to this. Is it my a problem with the keg or is this common and I'm doing something wrong??


Thanks.

Sounds like a bad O-ring or seal on the faucet............my.02

Thank you, What do you suggest i do?
As its currently full of beers.
Bit worried about the pressure building up naturally and me seeing it tomorrow being completely empty.

Take everything completely apart and rebuild it. Taps, connections, everything. Use some vaseline on orings and seals as well.

So i'll have to empty it back to bucket to do this,
are you guessing something not connected correctly??

Just bleed co2 out of keg no pressure no problems disconnect all lines and clean and rebuild.
