Hi Chris (and everyone),
I've had the HOG D1 regs for 5 months now and really like them. I'm having trouble with a small High Pressure leak between the SPG and the High Pressure hose, and I'm wondering if this is something I can fix myself. I had this same problem when I first bought the regs from DRIS and when I sent them back for repair, they charged me for the repair because they claimed I damaged it trying to fix it (all I did was loosen and try to re-tighten, and they were new out of the box).
Anyway, I'm getting champagne-sized bubbles regularly at this connection, and if I jiggle it more bubbles will come out. The system won't stay pressurized if I have it attached to a tank and turn the tank's valve off -- the pressure will slowly drop to zero. The SPG is the HOG black 2" one. When I was at the Long Beach show last month, Chris gave me a spare little spool that goes inside the SPG -- I still have that sitting in a drawer here.
Is this something I can do myself with some wrenches and silicone? Don't want to get a big charge again for a simple little leak.
Thanks,
-Graham
