: my 45/45 tank is leaking and somebody said it might be because i got dirt in the little fill hole( I dont have a dust cover). Is there any way I can clean this out myself withought having to take it to my local shop?
: Thanks

First and foremost, get a nipple cover or this will continue to happen.

Second, inside the fill nipple is a small oring that you need to replace. For a quick fix out on the field, sometimes it works to flip the oring, but the correct way to do it is to replace the oring entirely. Some shops do not sell just the oring, they sell the fill nipple assembly for usually 10 bucks.
