    Empty the cylinder and unscrew the end cap.There's a grub screw on the back of the end cap take that out remove the spring under that there's a small bit off metal with an o-ring on the end clean that and the end cap.
    It's an easy job to do.

    I'm not sure if I'm allowed to mention other forums on here but here goes.
    If you go to the Weirhauch Owners Club forum and look on PCP, there's a thread titled A&M Fill Port leak fix by XTXAIR's Darrin.
    It's a video showing how to cure your problem.

    Mod's, if I'm not allowed to reference other forums, please delete this and I will pm Woodpigeon.

    if there is no o ring then its broken up or some one has took it off as one guy says take the end plug out and there is a grub screw take that out then there is a spring with a piston with a o ring on the o ring normaly goes hard then it starts to leak cut the old o ring off fit a new one and it will be ok
