  1. @Avitt, noticed the same thing with the gen tubes. This gap really annoyed me. As i looked closer why this gap occured i noticed that the tube is not threaded all the way to the end. What i did was that i just forced the tube with the help of a pair of pliers. I was worried that this might do some damage to the tube or the case, but it all worked out fine and now the tube sits as it should.

    I got some locktite Lock'n seal (thread lock and sealant) at the same time as the T8. Just to be on the safe side i will use a drop of it.

    Thanks for the advice

  2. @avitt, i wen today to the hardware store and purchased a T8. I used it to insert a genuine tube into the 6263 case, worked out really well. Perfect. Just wanted to thank you for the advice.

    BTW do you use any glue or silicone for the tube?

  3. @halley lets see...is this what you mean... the big thin gasket on the outside of the tube after the thread for the crown. smaller thin one between case and tube. One of the smallest thick ones in the crown, and then there is one more of the thick small ones... where does that one go?

    Thanks

    BTW do you know if it is possible to find pics of this anywhere on the net?
