You can take the chrome cap on top of the reg off (with a pin spanner), unscrew the black cup (that mates to the spring) underneath chrome cap off, push the little black plastic plug out of the chrome cap, screw the underneath cup back on, put the chrome cap back on the reg, then adjust the spring tension with a 3/32” Allen wrench clockwise through the little hole where the black plastic plug was (with reg pressurized) until the leak stops. If the Allen key spins to the point that it loses tension (the black underneath cap has fallen off), you need a new poppet.@Kupu it freeflowed when I hooked it up unfortunately.

These work wellThe little rubber nipple in the middle of the chrome cap is keeping my Scubapro tool from fully seating on the cap so it's popping off under tension, scratching the cap in the process. I'll need to try with a different tool so I don't mess it up any further.
I guess you can use pliers to pull it out as well.Just pull that nipple out and put the Allen in the hole to tighten the spring
