Please read everything and see if you may be able to help.
The Run Down:
I recently purchased an Angel A.I.R. on eBay with an awesome Dark Angel. Well needless to say the tank needed to be hydro tested and a new LCD screen was needed and a mounting bracket was needed as well. After I got it back from the hydro place it was working great I shot about 200rds through it and it was fine. A few days later I gassed it up again and there was Gas leaking from the relief valve. I did some research and found out that the red seal behind the relief valve place can be rotated and still function. Well, I rotated it and drained all the gas thinking it was an o-ring inside the A.I.R. body. Well as it turns out it wasn't. So I took the tank to my local pro-shop and gas was beginning to leak in-between the A.I.R. body and the back plate right by the small ridge on the Burst disk side.
Possible solution.
I recently purchased a tool+parts kit for the Angel A.I.R. and figured that it wouldn't hurt to replace some of the o-rings. When the gas was leaking there was not o-ring on top and inside of the "rocket" inside that little indentation. The little small o-rings that fit inside on the Angel A.I.R. body were replaced.
Should I put an o-ring inside of the "rocket" inside that little indentation, because in the replacement diagram that came with the parts kit and tools it does not picture an o-ring, however according to: http://www.warpig.com/paintball/technical/regulators/air/index.shtml
There is supposed to be one there as shown in their diagram?
I wrote this to ask the experts: please help me if you can.
I would greatly appreciate a response back.
