my new tank :D

[SpyderMan723]

I bought a few things two weeks ago and they came in today. But here is my tank that i am in love with

71/45 Empire fuel.

Bought it from ANS gear for 150 bucks!





Ok so heres my question.. WHATS THE HYDRO!!! LOL


???

[Hossy]

you need to get that hydroed by 8/10 i believe.

if you bought that new.... thats kinda old.

Looks good though, its big!

actionvillage maybe? they sit on tanks a lot. My friend was stupid and bought a 91ci dye tank and it's hydro was like 2 years out. He returned it because it was too big (like i said it would be)

You need to return that and then get another... that hydro is not too far off! Say that the reason is that it is too large, and get yourself a 68/45.

Whats the E-DOT number on it? You can check on www.hydrotester.com to see if your tank is a 3 or 5 year tank using your E-DOT number.

Here is the direct link to the E-DOT chart:

is that a CF? if it is, the pics too dark to tell.

[bigred76]

It is a CF. That's just how dark Fuel tanks' epoxy is.

Carbon Fiber Luxfer Bottle after 03 = 5 year tank.

i think what i might do is ill get it hydro'd after i get some money, but i cant send it back because ive got a big game coming up soon and i dont want anything to worry about.. but yea just to clarify, its an empire fuel CF 71/45 that i bought from ANSgear.com. the tank is NOT too big, its actually very nice, very very lightweight.

but another question: When i took the tank out of the box, the reg was loose.. i twisted it back on nice and tight, will i have problems?

[DFSniper]

i'm gonna say yes. it should have loc-tite on it, right?
