So I have had to fill my C02 tank 3 times since December 7. I've tired everything to find a leak. And can't find one anywhere!! Makes me so mad cause I'm spending good money on filling this up and I know it should last longer then this. Anyone got a spare tank or reg for me to try out?? Or at least some advice?

Thanks,
Colin
 
Are you installing the plastic gasket between the tank and regulator?
 
Yeah I have the little doughnut in there. And I've put the soap around it and it did not bubble or anything.
 
I would also do the soap test anywhere else you have a threaded or barbed connection to the regulator: the pressure gauges, the solenoid, needle valve, attached bubble counter (if you have one).

Also soap the tank valve where the on/off valve is and the threaded connection of the tank valve into the body of the tank.

Any of these could be the source of you leak as well.
