So they relented and are sending me new tanks, though the still want me to do the test.

They also confirmed that they do not want the old tanks back so I'll start looking into a silicon sealant to try on one and getting the other machined for a smooth sealing surface.

I'm not sure if it would confirm well enough as is. Possibly if after machining it still needs help.

Re: What did you do to/with your 996 today?
