VIDEOClick to see full answer. Besides, why is my co2 regulator leaking?Leaks can occur through the lever screw if loose and also through the threads if no Teflon or plumber’s tape is used. You must wrap the threads in Teflon (plumber’s tape) and make sure the screw on the valve lever is tight. A common leak occurs where the regulator and CO2 tank come together.Beside above, why is my regulator leaking? The item inside the regulator that keeps the air flow from leaking out is the diaphragm. The higher the air use, the more the regulator diaphragm is stressed in the process of regulating the air. In time, the diaphragm will crack, and then the regulator is leaking.

(During serving, it’s a good idea to keep the CO2 connected if much of the keg will be consumed, so the dispensing pressure is maintained.) Finally, you could simply leave the CO2 tank connected until the keg is empty.
