Seems like a lot of worry about a small problem. My tank is rusty, so I
change the K Mart A/C filter $2.50 every 6 months to a year, and blast
the gas line with compressed air to blow all the crud back in the
tank.This has been going on now for seven years without an incident of
breaking down ( of course I will now). Stu Bollen
