AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
Replace it by unscrewing the back reg. half and pulling it out the back of the front valve body. If the spring doesn't come out with it, grab onto it and pull it out with dental pick tool. Not sure why you need to replace it, it's a non-wear item.
Unless you bent the pin somehow, or tried to file it down for some silly reason, there is no need to replace the pin. The spring is only there to keep the pin in place, it has nothing to do with regulating or any other performance.
The only thing that you should really check with the valve spring, is if your using CO2, you should check the valve pin spring for debris from within the tank, it works somewhat like a filter and should be checked every so often. Before I start getting told that im completely out to lunch about this, this is exactly what an AGD tech told me when I was still somewhat learning about 'mags.
