    When I enquired about regassing a couple of years ago, I was told that it was a legal requirement to test for leaks before regassing.

    They did what looked to me to be a pretty thorough test and replaced one O ring before regassing.

    It lasted about 3 or 4 months.

    They tested with a wand. I've been advised since on this forum that the fluorescent dye test is much better.

    I was told when I booked it in that they use the dye to test for leaks, so I'll see how it goes.
