Ok so I recently moved and my pressurized CO2 setup didn't make it all that well. First there was a major leak in the connection just before the regulator. I fixed that with some new pipe compound on the threads. Now I get everything going and all I can get out of it is maybe 1 bps but I cant even sustain that for long. No other leaks showed up when I tested. High pressure reads almost full tank of CO2, low pressure reads 30psi for my atomic diffuser. No matter how much I play with the needle valve I can't get enough CO2 to actually make it to my tank.
So here is the question.... What is wrong? Did I mess up with the pipe compound? I put too much on for my liking by accident but tried to wipe some off with a paper towel as best as I could. Could it be that something really broke during the move? How could I test for that?
