The o-ring around the regulator needs a smooth surface within the reservoir to get a good seal. Any marks going lengthways across where the seal is sitting will cause a leak.
Or, one of the two orings on the spacer (bus) isnt sealling. Again, make sure the sealing faces are clean and scratch free.
Dont push the regulator body too far into the reservoir, otherwise the seals on the spacer will be a bit pointless if the spacer is rattling free. Yes, the air pressure will push the regulator towards the firing valve end and push harder against the seals, but that wont happen if the air is passing through the reg and leaking out as fast as your filling.
