Stephen, how do you clean up the parts?  Citric acid in a sonicator?

Yep citric granules bought from chemists. Two tablespoons into a litre of boiling water. Run through the ultrasonic bath for 8mins.

Stephen, I think that tea towel is not O2 clean and can only be used to 50% from Dunnes, Pennys do a very nice set thats ready straight from the pack and with a nice floral design!  ;D

I haven't got to the cyls yet but I don't think so. I reckon whats happening is that its from my right hand stage and I must have made the descent with the cyl turned off and the reg not pressured up and the water is forced into the reg. No big deal - that's just the nature of diving. It cleaned up beautifully and is ready for action again.
