OMS Wing Tools
I have a small leak from the inflator assembly on my OMS wing. The bubbles are escaping from around the inflate button.

Anyone dismantled one of these before? It looks like a special tool is needed?

A pair of circlip pliers with the spikes ground down to fit ........ hmmm, it might be cheaper to send it off for repair! I wouldn't mind if it didn't involve damaging the pliers that I haven't bought yet!

Had exactly this problem with my OMS wing inflator. Took it into my LDS (Deep Dive in Luton) and asked Arthur to have a look at it. He stripped it, cleaned it, replaced and regreased the O ring, put it back together and tested it for me. Even got a cup of coffee for free whilst I waited. He wouldn't take any money for it either. Top man!

Hmmm, drive to Luton, send it to Diver's Warehouse or DIM .............

I am trying to adopt a philosophy of DIY with my kit.

Mine didnt bubble, it just exploded in my hand!

Replaced rapidly by OMS.
The circlip pliers will do the job.
