How do you do the valves were not bumped open durring transport?
I find most people who fill my tanks over tighten the valves. If the valve is working well, it should not need to be tightend hard. The seal on the valve is not an o-ring, but the valve seat (usually hard nylon, or brass) against metal.
Over tightening the valves can damage the seats.
