Hi Folks Does anybody that knows the AGA regs well know of any reason that the first stage would flood. I am sure it is not just my imagination, I opened the first stage last night and their was salt encustration over everything, the springs, the seat, everything. Also I think that the flooding happens during the dive to the point that I get water through the regulator! I can't for the life of me think of a senerio that would allow water into the first stage while in use, I would have thought that the presure would have kept the water out. Even if the environment cover leaked , how would this water get into the low pressure feed to the regulator? Thanks in advance Terry P.S. watched the making of the ABYSS last night, what an incredible adventure and a top show, they were pulling bottom times in the 3-4hour range and deco`s of 50min all in a 45f?w tank. They even rigged a fill station on the bottom so they didn't have to get out to fill their tanks! -- Life`s ABYSS, then you dive ******************************************************************** Terry McCracken GEC ALSTHOM Information Technology Software Support Engineer Ph: 61 2 415 0509 terrym@ns*.co*.au* Fax: 61 2 417 8635
