Righto cool, been 10 years since I used OG Inox at work.

The piston head need the holes in the face slightly enlarged to work best .
But do it very carefully and only in the top part, do not go right through the bottom as well :rofl:
I made them 1.5mm with a drill bit in a small hand chuck or pin vice.

Hi, i am just curious because i didn’t know i would need to lube the o-ring itself :frowning:
i thought all it would need for piston and cylinder is just lube the inside of the cylinder :sweat_smile:

Bit of lube on both helps longevity and good seal. Not heaps just a bit or it will block the air holes in your piston head or fill your gearbox with goop.

is there a point where its is too big?
coz i been browsing piston and cylinder parts, but most on ebay seems either too small (the 8 tiny hole type), or the really big 7 holes in like a long ovel shape.

#37

are all green o rings the same or do batches brands vary? they never have brands on them

#38

Yes if you drilled them 10mm that would definitely be too big :rofl:
Look most piston heads don’t need touching, that shs nylon one has really tiny holes.
The best way to know is to test for suction, If there is any at all then the holes are too small… or you wrapped plumbers tape under the o ring :rofl:
