I just got my Piranha G3 EXT Pro today... my 20oz Pure Energy would leak down my barrel, I stuck in my friends 20oz Pure Energy tank and no problems. both have brand new o-rings. My tank worked fine in his Bruizer Outlaw so we just decided to trade...but thats crazy. Any body have anything like this happen to them? Anybody know why that could have happend?

maybe you were shooting with your gun towards the ground and stopped when you used his. who knows maybe it was just bad luck.

I think it had something to do with the tanks having slightly diffrent threadings. Yours didn't seal all the way and your friend's tank did. Drop an o-ring or two in the ASA and then try your "leaky" tank.

Make sure the gun is cocked before you put the CO2 in. Also, you might have a scratched cup seal, or a chipped internal o-ring. Sometimes new markers have bad o-rings. Sometimes, you just have to fire the gun a couple times and it will stop.
Oil all of your stuff. See if you still have the same problem.

does the tank leak when you take it off. If yes, try pressing in the point in the nozzle(I forgot the name) if no make sure you lubricated the gun.
