A question for those who might know....
I just got my valves and manifold O2 cleaned and serviced. After getting my tanks filled, I noticed the manifold is somewhat stiffer to operate than prior to the servicing. I brought it back to the shop that did the work, and they agreed that the manifold seemed to be stiffer than it should. We blew the tanks down and took it apart again, made sure the o-ring was lubed ok and that everything was put together ok, but the problem still persists. Any ideas? It is a Scubapro manifold, which I have heard to be stiffer than other manufacturers, but the issue I have is that it became stiffer after servicng. Perhaps this is normal??
