Re: Help! Silvia Leaking Grouphead Seal?
Im not sure, Ive been adjusting the grind finer and finer to try and slow down the pour but no luck yet.
Going back over the whole thing - you initially said there was a "small" leakage. So has this gotten worse? If so - then it must be the new seal install (or indeed the new seal). The OPV might be set a bit high (it typically is a little high), but the primary fault would have to be the seal in this case and as Gonzo said:
It is currently leaking lesser with a lower dose. Im seeing lesser leakage when I tamp lower than the ridge line. Previously I wasnt sure if I got lower than the ridge line.
About the OPV pressure, Ive popped some money into Mr Pullmans account to be next in line for the pressure gauge. Once I get my hands on it Ill be albe to tell for sure if my OPV is giving me too much pressure.
