its quite normal to have some leak if the main valve is not completely opened/closed.chek if the main valve is completely open, if the leak is still there even after fully opening the valve you need to get it checked.

Perhaps Sushant has emphasised the possibility of using O2 cylinders for C02 because they are easier to find, and who knows, cheaper?
