I've read a lot about servicing the various Aqua Lung regulators and thanks to the posts here and the links to the service manuals I have successfully serviced several regulators including first and second stages plus an old US Divers SPG, and old US Divers depth gauge, a couple of BCs, and an old US Divers K valve. But, I'm not sure just how to remove the seat in the first stage. On one there are two small holes (not sure of the model but it looks like a Deepstar) under the valve seat. Am I supposed to push it up and out from the bottom? It works fine the way it is so I figured I'd better leave well enough alone, for the moment. The other is a Calypso J and I forgot what that one looked like but I would appreciate suggestions for it too! One of the manuals indicated that the seat is reversable and from what I've read here it should last a long time if I reverse it each time I service the regulator. Both regulators had a slow, steady trail of bubbles coming from the vent holes in the first stage and now both seem to be AOK. Now if I could just find a great deal on a doublehose that can be restored.
Thanks!
