Gents,
Although I can practically take my Ion to bits and build it again blindfold, for the first time ever I'm trying to change all the o-rings and have hit a slight snag.
I have a pack of 'standard' o-rings, but although have a variety of sizes, some being the apparent sizes I require, I think they are perhaps not the same thickness.
This was demonstrated by my firebolt not latching forward properly becos the main o-ring was not thick enough to make a seal and it dumped a tank of air in a few very loud seconds.
So can anyone help with the following.
a) Can anyone offer where I can get a full set of o-rings.
b) My aim is to change EVERY o-ring, and their appears to be a few hidden ones, so if anyone can advise where they think they all are, possibly including a total number, that would be great.
c) Do I change the bumper ring on the firebolt?
For reference the Ion has...
Firebolt.
Lucky Stage 2.
Currently a very loud leak down the breech.
Your help is much appreciated.
