[QUOTE="chillrich, post: 1225151, member: 46453"] I used cardstock last time with fork removed and slightly compressed to flush the debris out. Emptied the oil from the outer chamber afterwards and put in fresh. In this particular case the All Balls seals(last set last 12 months) were only 2 weeks old. I also found 2 small nicks that may have been the issue, wet sanded with 1000/2000 grit, better safe than sorry. They have not begun to leak again and have 1 month on them after the card trick/nick repair. Is there merit in the idea of filling the small nicks with silver solder? Is heat applied by propane torch? Gonna try the foam strips too. [/QUOTE]
