I will be very specific ad see what happens. Find a piece of pipe that is just big enough to let the cap fit inside it. Fill the tank with H2O to the very top of the neck. Put a piece of plastic film on the tank opening and place the cap on and tighten. Place the pipe in a vice or other holder so the tank can be inverted into the pipe (tank up, cap and bent tube down)and is not going to tip or move the pipe (strong sturdy fixture for the pipe). Tape up the neck of the tank with duct tape (torn into a 1/2" width) at the top just under the cap, and at the tank, making it just fit into the pipe. Turn the tank upside down into the pipe. Open the tank valve, and put no more than 15 PSI in it with an air hose into the valve (fittings and a screw in schrader valve from a tire repair store would help. As the pressure is applied, pull on the tank to straighten the neck. This will apply bothe mechanical and hydraulic pressure (a couple of hundred pounds of force at 15 psi on the inside)-----Do not exceed 20PSI-----. There may be profound leaking in this process, ignore it. it will only take a max of 2 seconds to straighten out. good luck, Jim
