I installed new O-rings in the AMP regulators in my Maverick and found a simple way to make it easier to install those tiny 2mm x 1mm O-rings. I threaded the adjusting screw topside down into the reg body so I had 2 hands free to get the O-ring over the end of the screw. I suppose another idea would be to get a nut with the same threads and make a little fixture to clamp in a vise.

Don't own any FX guns or AMP regulators, but just love when folks post these helpful tidbits.

Good idea, they can be a bear to get on. It helps to put them in hot water first to make them more pliable.

Thank you for that tip!! Those little buggers are not fun to replace. I can see where your method would make it much easier

I just drilled a hole in a block of wood. The block is flat, I don't need a vice to hold it level.
And I can rest my wrists on the block too.

I had it custom made per my design. That video you saw he designed and made that for himself. You can Google dentist o ring install tool and see a three pack of stainless ones to fit different sizes of o rings which will get you close
