VM29's are easy to rebuild. Just don't strip the jet block screw.

Z1 Enterprises has the various O-rings you will need. I've got some too, or at least I used too.

Good luck

There are members here that can do it for you. The rules prevent them from offering their services unless they are a paying vendor. You can PM them and do it that way.

Those O-rings won't fit, other than maybe for the pilot air screw. The regular VM O-rings are different from those for the smoothbores.
