[PSUBS-MAILIST] scuba reg problem

[Alan via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi Hank,
the little non threaded holes are usually to let water pressure in to balance
the regulator to maintain your 130psi above ambient.
It sounds like o-rings or valve seat. Nothing should be leaking out of it.
It won't hurt if it's not much & you can get it serviced.

The vent hole has no threads, so I assume it is a vent.  The amount of air is very slight, is this thing screwed.  It works fine otherwise
