sprung a leak at some point last night.......not much water made it to the floor, but the floor under the tank is definitely wet*just what I need.....damage the hardwood floor two months before I move*.....I found the leak(one of my hose clamp connections) and quickly fixed it, but in the process I created another leak at the bulkhead......I go to grab the big channel-lock pliers the give the bulkhead a turn...... and doh!.......Mikey has all my pliers and wrenches!.......@#$*......now Ive got a drippy bulkhead.......thats when frustration set in and I managed to get the bulkhead tightened(ever so slightly) by hand.....seems to have stopped the leak, but will have to snug it more later when I get decent pair o pliers.....I sat there for an hour trying to get the water under the tank to leech into towels.......got a big fan blowing in the general direction......hopefully I didnt bugger the floor up
