Make sure all the air is out, and then use some muscle. Some of those badboys are on their tight. Sometimes it helps to use two people (one on reg, one on bottle).

I borrow your topic.

How to be sure that I have all air out?

Im new to the angel air system and got it pretty cheap becourse the tank need to be test pressured.

simply remove the macroline connector and then adjust the adjusting screw all the way in to bleed the tank, when no more air comes out it's empty, then you can unscrew the bottle from the tank by hand.

Thanks for the fast answear. Have done that now, but i need a freind to hold the reg or the tank. I migth be strong but not strong enougth to remove the tank. It was also really hard go get a good grip on the tank and the reg.

Will try tomorrow agian.

u might have to replace the o-ring too since it might not seal up properly again.....I know I had to (also works in plumbin stuff)
