I bought an automag that wasn't working and when I took it apart, It looks it was the on/off valve. The o-rings looked like they were installed incorrectly. It doesn't look like an AGD valve, although it could be. Could someone look at this picture and tell me where the orings are supposed to go and am I missing any parts? I have plenty of o-rings but no idea where to put them.

Thanks.

looks like a "reactor valve" they are supposed to help with shootdown. if you putt he correct o-rings in, it should as well as the stock on/off

I need someone to tell me which orings go where? It's not obvious when you look at the valve. Is the spacer at the right end?

the o-rings are setup exactly the same as a stock on/off. yes the metal washer goes in last.

So, does this look right? Do I need the large o-ring between the steel spacer and the the top section?

Does anyone have a parts diagram for a z valve?

Thanks, that's the valve. I use that site all the time. Never thought to look up a reactor valve. Of course, at the time, I didn't know it was a reactor valve.

Thanks.

This should help if you dident figure it out already. The o-rings come in the classic mag parts kit. The reactor was a ok upgrade for the realy old on/off set but the new style on/off will work the same or better than the reactor
