What's the best way to remove the tiny "washer" under the grub screw air release on the rear of the stock (tube stock). Small leak there and Brian provide me with the tiny delrin washer but I'm not really sure how to remove the one that's there now. Hopefully the new one will just drop in straight to improve the 3 bar/24 hr leak.

You can get it out with a small pointy tool. Ie a toothpick or a needle should do the trick. It just lays on top so not difficult to remove.
It can be a little difficult to really seal it. If I remember well I put a small oring in it instead of delrin. Once sealed don't touch it

Thanks I got it out and new delrin in. Just like you say very hard to seal. Seems to be a smaller leak than the 2/3 bar in 24hr but I’ll know tomorrow. If this doesn’t do it I’ll either blow it off or try the tiny o-ring. I’ll have to see if I can even find a o-ring that small.

Mine leaked in the same spot when brand new. I had a very hard time getting it to stop. I finally did after cranking down on the grub screw a lot tighter than normal. I swapped grub screws around as they are different and that finally did it. There has to be a mfg flaw there or something, though I can't prove that.
Either way, I hope you get yours to stop. If you did use an o-ring, let me know where you found one if you don't mind. I'll pick some up asap.

OK. So sounds like a known problem. We’ll see what it reads tomorrow. I think it’s still leaking a little bit. I’ll see if it’s less or more. Do you know what size the grub screw is if I’m shopping?

According to the "old" schematic,, it is М4х8 10.9 DIN913.
I say "old" schematic because the basic design is there, but there have been many mods over time that just aren't reflected by the schematic I have. That said, I believe what is stated for the grub screw is accurate.

Strangely I looked up the meaning of DIN 913 and it means flat base. The one currently in my gun has a pointed base. Interesting.
