Hmm I've tryed flicking through all of this forgive me if I've missed it , but does anyone have the problem of the bottom screw you put the wire under not screwIng down far enough to hold the wire in place ? It seemed to work first time but now even tho it's screwed right down my wire just slides in and out think I need a new screw or something

Try using the screw from the filling hole or simply use a washer

Tryed that it was even worse lol where can I get the right washer for it haha any idea and what material guessing not plastic incase it burns

[blakey]

Any steel washer that fits will do the job

There is a spare screw in the kit..

The screws are softer than the top piece, so most likely it's been cross threaded and the threads in the screw are buggered..

just seen some pics of the AGA-W over the road..looks nice but cant tell if the tank is threaded or not :

eta : tho looking at the top of the tank on the first pic..hmm , does that look like the end of a thread on the tank...?????

[maccafan]

I will find out..I got told again two days ago that the AGA-W was with threaded tanks and not as good as the AGA-T and was being made only for Germany but I got a feeling she was hiding something knowing that we are not a vendor.

That one looks very similar to the AGA-T tank design so don't think it has threaded tanks...

Looks like it would be easier for to position better the air hole with the two o'rings
instead of threads.

It'll be interesting to know what the differences are exactly Macca. The exclusivity thing is hodge podge as Daz is getting them in.

indeed , tho just spent this afternoon sanding down my AGA-T top cap down to align the hole.
Typically the one i got wasn't just 20 or 30 degrees out more like 300. still, all done now

[maccafan]

Actually, taking a closer look the tanks are threaded:

[apostle51]

yeah , good spot, I noticed the bit below the top cap , like the last bit of thread on the tank

[maccafan]

What we really need is a top piece and cap like that but made for the AGA-T..

I am sure they will stumble upon it by the time they get to AGA-Z..

Got mine de-knurled

[maccafan]

Nice though the photo is pretty hazy and does not do it justice....I must do mine one of these days..

[Mev]

yeah it's only my phones poor camera, turned out well though.

[maccafan]

Bottom cap done..Took me about 20 minutes with a file to get the knurling out and then various grits to finish it..



Now for the top cap..
