King keg can't get injector valve working

[rolando]

Hi All,

I recently bought a cap for the keg, that has a pressure gauge (this). I can't for the life of me get the bulb holder to get the bulb to inject into the barrel, it simply spins being blocked by the valve:

check out a video here

Am I simply being a dufus here? Do I need a different bulb holder/injector?

Thanks in advance all, stay safe!

Not being an owner of a PB I can only ask are you using threaded C02 bulbs? does it need threaded bulbs? is there a vid you can find on You Tube.

Is the piercing pin in place? I see from your link this can be removed. If it's there try packing above the top of the bulb with a little paper to push the bulb down a fraction more.

Hey all,

So it turns out the "normal" bulb holder / injectors aren't quite compatible with the S30 style valves, but if you cut the bottom 5mm off they work fine!!

Thanks for the suggestions / help @LED_ZEP @Banbeer

Glad you're all sorted
