Next time you have a slide and adjustable jet kit needle in your hands...hold the retainer down, push the needle up....if ANY freeplay...they dance.

In a constant effort to improve my methods, i'm now using axle grease to form and hold the orings in place prior to bowl installation. Heat cycles and pressure will insure the orings form and stay in place....easily removed when required.
Fear not... giant globs of grease are removed....no invasive slop...no migration...clean and neat as always.

Good questions, comments and discussion...thanks for your interest Bill!

Grease is a good idea. Sooner or later you probably would have to use acetone and scrape the old cyanoacrylate glue out on the next rebuild.
