Arrgh. Bought 7 ball lock kegs a while back. Tested 5 of them. Guess which ones are leaking?
Yup, the last 2 empty ones.
Well, one is full now with scotch ale, but the relief valve leaks. I tried swapping the valves on the 2 as the lids were not interchangeable. The valve are different too. One is the split ring type and the other is the little plastic lever type. I tried tightening them and I fiddled around twisting the lever on the plastic one. It seems to be holding at the moment but I am not convinced it is going to stay that way.
Stupid parts cost about 1/2 as much as a used keg! grrrrrr. grumble grumble...
