|   Did I screw up? | Kitchenware
Apr 8, 2002 10:02 AM | | Ok, I've rebuilt a shock, taken apart air forks etc... Today I'm playing around with my Float RC because it needs new spacers and a new sleeve so I'm looking for a way to remove said sleeve. (I know how now) I opened what I thought might have been a set screw for the sleeve (stupid me, it wasn't) but when I opened it, I released some pressure and now my shock is all squishy sounding and my lock-out bleeds off. Did I fark up, is this pressurized at the factory, or can I fix it?

It sounds to me like you have released the pressure. As for putting it back in???? Sorry can't help ya. I suspect it will have to be a factory service. |
