Verbal instructions from Fred were to loosen the hex nut on the o/p valve,
turn the screw out while counting the turns. If you had it all the way down
and had low OP you won't need to keep the setting.The next step was to use a
telescoping magnet to fish out the ball and other metal debris if any. Best
to not keep the spring compressed too much initially and adjust from there.
Soak the spring and ball in spirits for 20 minutes. Replace and push ball
down with a long stick, you can reverse the magnet, and if you had any debris
come up your OP should be higher already.
