Hi all,
i have looked at all the information on the other site, but non refer to the fixing of the female part of the brass gland.
Because the male and female parts of the gland are seized together, i have had to remove them in there entirety, which brings me to the question of apart from the small threaded part in the tank thickness, what tightens the female part in place in the tank or is that it?, as when the male section is unscrewed it will undo the already fixed female part.? Also is there supposed to be a small section of plastic pipe, protruding from the outlet.?
Something which cropped up while i was effecting the tank repair, i noticed 4 self tapping screws protruding from the gas cabinet, on investigation, it was found that the regulator is screwed through the aluminium panel .When the tank is full, it expands slightly, and presses against the 4 screws, not the best arrangement i think you will agree
