Just replaced the plenum o-rings in my Huben Dream Valve 7075. Had another problem that I posted earlier and that seems to be cured. One of the 4mm x 4mm set screws at the plenum swivel was leaking before the new internal o-rings and is still leaking after their replacement.
My fingers are to fat to be able to wrap the set screw with teflon tape. My guess is that there shouldn't be any air where the set screws are located, but the o-ring replacement didn't slow down the leak at all. It is only leaking from 1 of the two set screws. I am contemplating taking it apart again and tapping the hole to a larger set screw and see if that will stop the leak.
Does anyone have suggestions for curing the leak?
Thanks
