Just finished a trip to Ohio from Utah. I was puffing along every now and then. About an hour into the trip, I noticed my Russian was leaking pretty bad out of the air holes. Parleys Canyon is about 3000' feet higher than down in the valley.
Pulled over at a rest stop and took the fill screw out, and reinstalled it. Then inverted the atty and let it drip the rest out of the chamber. I was GTG the rest of the trip thankfully. I assume the pressure change was forcing juice out of the tank. I travel by air a lot, and now I'm worried about the pressure changes on the plane. How do you frequent flyers deal with leaking tanks and pressure changes? |
All tanks will leak unless you can guarantee their orientation for the whole trip.
