Again. The joints at the tank where the tails bolt on are leaking again. I've tried allsorts.
What else? |

Do you have the fiber sealing washers on the fittings?

Also make sure the brazing surrounding the flanges on the pipes isn’t cracked from over-tightening

I've tried various materials and combunations. I currently have aluminiun washers in the joint. They sealed at first but now the joint is seeping.
