Fixing HPA tanks: I was told there is no requirement to test hpa alluminum tanks. I have 3 that leak (probably burst disk or fill nipples)
I would like to fix and sell these tanks assuming they have value.
If they're 2" diameter then the tanks should be fine. Rebuild the regs and you're good to go. Anything bigger than that requires a hydro test though.

Regardless of what Transport Canada says, it's still up to the individual field as to what their fill policy is. I would assume they have little value untested and proceed accordingly.

Transport Canada (our version of the DOT) has ruled that any tank under 1L/61cu.in. does not require periodic hydrotesting during its lifespan.
