Ok! So my new regulator got here today. I have it all hooked up, and it seems like it is dialed in ok the way I have it set but...
On the high pressure side, gauge is only reading ~60. On the low pressure side, it is reading ~7. If I attempt to close off the pressure regulator knob anymore than I already have it set, then it starts to "dump" CO2 out of what I am assuming is some kind of safety valve.
First, are the numbers I have showing on the gauges "normal" or is my CO2 tank not completely full?
Second, because the pressure regulator knob is out as far as it is, (and I can't screw it in further because of CO2 dump), the needle valve is EXTREMELY sensitive. I am talking like 1/4 turn is the difference between 1 BPS and a straight flow of gas through the bubble counter.
If anyone out there is using one of these setups and can give me some insight, it would be much appreciated!!
