General question...has anyone else experienced problems in attaining a good
seal on the supply tank in their FACScan? I have had continuous problems with
this seal, resulting in less than optimal pressurization of the tank, which
in turn causes the system to continuously "adjust" this pressure. This
causes signals to drift up and down the scale (usually up).

If there are any others experiencing this problem, let me know. Also, any
solutions would be appreciated. BD's response is to "try another tank"...
ther's got to be a better way...
