Diaphragm ordered, now waiting, should be here in a few days, is it a big job or is it easy enough?

Just out of interest, have you got any photos of your guide cone???
Do you mean this one?
It's a bit small wammers!!!!
I had a thought the other day, as the valves and rubbers are all lubed with silicone why can't (as a maintenance thing) i spray silicone lude in the air intake of the pump?? (i have pure silicone spray for my embroidery machines) wouldn't that lube it all up and sort out sticky valves etc??
If you get one that's hard and stiff a little lubricant works wonders sometimes.
Ok OK OK!! only a thought! don't tell me off....
I look forward to that then!!
What are you like.
I'll bet, but seriously if you look at the photo of the NRV you will see the guide cone. This gets worn by constant movement against the valve seat. It gets a lip worn into it. This is what stops the O ring from seating as it then snags on the seat lip. Easy to change but you don't seem to be able to buy new ones anywhere.:angel:i'm a cheeky angel!!!

I'm gona have a go at overhauling the block if it goes again, but until then i'm leaving it alone. I hate to say it but i maybe selling my beloved RR soon anyway, he's looking a bit tired and worn out, i think he's been worked too hard!!
Ain't that typical you women wear us blokes out wanting constant attention. Then swop us in for a newer model with a harder ride.

Just trying to teach the lady all about O rings. What's wrong with that.

Thank you Wammers, you are a credit to this forum!
Ooohh No i was thinking more along the line of black leather to match me thong??? easier to keep clean too!
I wouldn't swap you wammers you know that
just the other half keeps calling it a "steaming pile of ****!!!" so thinking it may need updating
.As long as the steaming pile of excreta keeps pulling your gee gee round that's all that matters. Think that's what you said you used it for other than dogging but am i giving secrets away now?,
