Help me find a " D-System Sankey Coupler " for a keg.... I've call a lot of places around town.... but no joy....
All the C02 is leaking out of the one we have.... this sucks.... a full keg of beer and no way to get it out!!!
Well, if you had asked 18 years ago when I was playing lacrosse in college and was caretaker of our after game kegs, I could have given you one as I had two or three in the toolbox of my truck.
But, this might help...

If you don't mind damaging the keg, I can get the beer out! :lol

I hope this doesn't mean you're having a problem tapping the bunghole? :wtf
Hey Gopher, I was thinking, you may not need to replace the entire thing. Take the coupler off and check the gaskets on it. I'll bet all you have is a bad gasket that's keeping it from seating right. Should be able to go to your local hardware store and get a new gasket for it.

My buddy and I might have been born in the dark.... but it wasn't last night!!!

We replaced two seals.... still no joy.... He's checking out a place right now off of St. Mary's....
Thanks for the tips though...
Did you try it on another keg to see if maybe the one keg you have is bad?

Ok.... you got me there.... :)
We only have ONE keg though.... We may be drunks... but we ain't cronic.
The only two things I can think of (not including wrecked internals in the coupler), if you've replaced the gaskets, is that either the seat in the keg is galded letting it leak, or the keg is overpressured causing the relief valve to open.
You have your own keg and that's not chronic?

1-3-6-9... I'm a married man with three kids.... I have very few joys left in life.... They happen to be: (not in any order)
1. Dallas Cowboy Football
2. Minnesota Twins Baseball
3. San Antonio Spurs Basketball
4. Golden Gopher Sports
5. NASCAR
6. Beer
I understand totally Gopher (I'm married with a three month old and a three year old). I believe that I am one of the main reasons Lone Star still has a brand on the market.
Hopefully you can solve this disturbing problem and get the keggerator back and running soon.
You started brewing your own now?

We replaced the "o-rings" one more time.... actually, my buddy found a parts description and saw we were missing one.... so all is right with the world!!!
