ha ha, dont rush, if your happy them bungs wont fall out.... my sphincter always goes tight using them, dont know why, never does it when I freeze pipes with the leccie freezer :)

You shouldn't use them bungs on your sphincter!
 
one thing, sometimes the tank fitting which you bung has small lugs which won't let the bung seal properly. in these cases I keep some blutac in my bung box which I use inside a latex glove to give a good seal.

I always remember a former member advising a parsnip for bunging tanks.

I thought same, - blutac, bung box and latex glove after a sphincter has been opened in conversation, - if you pardon the expression!
