Found a reason to wait. I cleaned the original in laquo thinner and it swelled them. 2 hour later they are almost back to the right size but I'm stopped for now...back to my comfy chair and season 2 of GoT

What did you clean in lacquer thinner that swelled?

The o-rongs that's go around the cylinder to seal the spigot. They-re back to normal now and installed. I used the tribond 1211 Wade suggested, fingers crossed

Me too...we'll get a first peak at results tomorrow. Yesterday was family stuff but today I brought it up to 50lf-fts and added the leak test cap which needs time for the sealant to cure. Tomorrow I'll bring it to 70ft-lbs and see what happens when I try to fill it with air.
