I recently filled my 5 lb CO2 tank and my wife insisted that it sit in the back of her car on the way home. Then she had to stop by Lowes on the way back - when she opened the back gate on her car, the tank fell out and landed on the plastic valve, cracking it.
I was able to squeeze the handle and turn the valve so that it's connected to the my kegging system and can still carbonate. It should last a few months, however my concern is what to do when it is eventually empty. Is it possible to replace the broken plastic black valve, or do I need to order a new replacement tank?
The black valve on the top of the tank is what has cracked and now broken off completely....
