Time to figure out my braking system. I have two old and crusty rear pressure regulators. I'm going to tear them down and refurbish one. I noticed that their adjuster screws are set at different depths.

Is there a way to determine proper preload?

Thanks.

George

I find this graph on post #40 of interest for what the you are hoping to achieve. But as mentioneed, one would need a way to put pressure on the valve and meaure it with a gauge to dial in the graph numbers.
