Is it normal for some of the lube to pass the piston into the swivel? I’ve never packed an Environmental chamber but mine looked lite on lube. Also noticed some clear lube on the outside of the reg.
I was at my LDS looking for a trim ring to replace the environmental band, the tech showed me a spring from an Atomic he serviced. He said air pockets had developed that trapped water in the cap and what happen to the spring, it was corroded and broke in-half. It was stored for some time in between uses.
I was thinkIng this could be a problem if you have your regs serviced every 2 to 3 years, and don’t maintain the packing yourself in between services.
Any thoughts or experience with this issue? Do you maintain the packing yourself in between service?
