Last year I was trying to find replacements for unusual sized poppet orings for a second stage balanced poppet.I'm not pretty sure I saved them, but I'll check that up. But I remember I've compared them when replacing and didn't see differences (at least to my eyes)

Yes but did it increase or lower cracking effort?Last year I was trying to find replacements for unusual sized poppet orings for a second stage balanced poppet.
A very slight difference in oring size was enough to drastically affect performance.
A good call by Nemrod to verify correct size was provided in the aftermarket kit, however unlikely that may be.
