Quick and Easy fix for kayfun lite leaking out of the fill screw

[MrWarspite]

I couldn't find really tiny o-rings at my local home depot, but i did notice a little keychain screwdriver on an endcap that 2 tiny 0-rings on it.

Each one of these will "fix" two kayfuns

Just pull the little o-rings off the screwdriver and use them on the fill screw. The fill screw will not sit all the way flush, it sticks out about half a millimeter. No more leaks!

actually my first few kayfuns came with a small screw driver set and also had these tiny orings . a lot used these for the fill hole problem you are speaking about, they came in handy for sure

A wrap or two of plumbers' Teflon tape works well too.

Good suggestion, i hadn't thought of that. Thanks Rule

Teflon tape didn't work so well for me. I'm going to try the orings from my mini screw driver that came with my russian.

These screwdrivers are available on on all Chinese sites at less than $2 and I actually have piled a few from several clones that it was bundled with. What I don't have is any leaking issues from a fill hole to try it out LOL>

Been using plumbers tape since the first gen vivi nova days when they would always leak. I seal up all types of things that I would worry about usually.

Those little screwdrivers accumulated in our junk drawer and now are being put to good use....thanks for the idea!!
