The couple I bought it from I don’t think they never replaced the rod in the bottom of the tank ... had a lot of sediment and I had flush it out a lot before it would stop coming out.. when I filled it I had the PR valve open to let the air escape.. when full I closed it like normal.. it had a fast leak to it at first so I kept wiggling it around but never could get it to fully stop.. I even waited a couple days before I decided to replace it ... hense .. gave me the issue I had this past weekend ��..

Tanks for everyone’s help on here very much appreciated!!! God bless all you...
