Anyone can tell me witch ring I have to change ?
That's a grub screw that hold and aligns the valve housing. Orings around the valve housing 29B.
I'm not an expert but that would be my guess. Have a look at Ernst video on how to pull it apart. . Bit of work to get to them. Someone may be able to confirm for sure.

I just got the rebuild kit and did all of them in mine.

No oring on the set screw, it's thread sealed, try tighten the screw, if still blows put thread sealer.

The air also come from the end of the valve o-ring . Maybe I have to replace this o-ring 1x2 mm ?

The original oring is marginally harder (buna75), or it was on the first impacts, but its not that easy to find in bulk, but the one in link will work just fine.

I been testing Viton oring 1X2 and buns 70 side by side after a tin the Viton seem to swell up a bit and the 70 got smaller, don't know if it matters but I have less leak issue with the Viton. It's a habit for me to indicate the CS 1st, 1.02 CS will not fit. go by the web site details below:

I have order them to try it.
It is just a bit bigger.

Some provider are selling FX Impact O ring kit for $38.00 USD
I just order the equivalent of 50 of them for the same price.
So be aware guys.

No more leak.
I have changed the o-ring following video from Ernest carefully with 100%"success.
I have appreciate the experience and that make me feel much more informed about the Impact.
Dont be scared to change o rings guys.
The Impact is a very accurate air gun and it is not a airgun for someone who wish to drive a Ford Tempo .
This is a Formula One and need maintenamce properly done.
For me this is lot of fun, havimg all my time and not rocket sience. Just simple mechanic.
Thank you again Ernest.
Without your video I would have be in a situation,to ship my impact for repair with shipping cost and manpower repair and servicing cost.
I just saved a bunch of money and did not have to wait 2-3 weeks for my gun to come back home , not knowing if they made the proper job.
