Double Hose Service proceedure

Tue Aug 14, 2007 10:38 pm

I just wanted to say that bettween Bryans advice, the USD repair manual on CD I bought from Bryan and his parts, this website has been a wealth of information. Before logging on here, I would not have considered rebuilding my own double hose regs. Now it's just another diving related thing I do.
I take great pride in diving regs I have rebuilt myself. I showed Nemrod my Hooka portless DA which I dove at Wazee. I think he was suitably impressed as it looked great and obviously dived well. Thanks to what I learned here, that 50 year old reg works as good as it did when it was first manufactured. Thanks Bryan!

I was very impressed with it. It is a nice regulator and I could tell that you were proud of it. Sorry, sometimes it seems I don't pay attention to other people, a common complaint against me, Trust me, I am super observent and I did notice your regulator.

I for one am eternally grateful that Dan and Bryan are out there to take care of our double hose regulators. If it wasn't for them I'd be vintage diving only in my dreams...

You should start a new thread,post some pictures and tell us about it.........Also be sure and check out what I posted about servicing procedures in the Technical Tips section...
Doing it right should include some common sense, not just blindly following specs and instructions. .Gary D, AWAP on SB
