in posts

Hi.
I have a poorly in post which i cant get to stop leaking co2 out. It stops after ive poked it a few times but it really needs changing. The question is, are the in posts universal? Does one from BarleyBottom fit all cornies for instance, as all my cornies are slightly different?
Cheers.
EDIT: My LHBS told me there were different ones.

What I have found is that there are two types of in and out posts, and the thread sizes are different and the posts are not interchageable . . . . . . I would suggest a conversation with Stefan at candirect should help you determine the right replacement posts for your kegs.

This sounds like a problem with the poppet and not the post, if the post fits.
I have the same problem every now and then when I pick up on of my older poppets, instead of one of the new ones that came with new posts.
If replacing posts it always worth replacing the poppets, then you know you can't go wrong, unless you choose the wrong post.

I've had a couple leak and I replaced with poppet type 'A' from H&G. http://www.hopandgrape.co.uk/catalog/ca ... no=2#items

There are different poppets for different posts, maybe I just got lucky and fixed mine without the expense of a post.
