Hi

Yeah sure you can change it easily.

Turn off GC, close your gases. unplug autosampler and remove it. Then loose the screw under injector, change the rubber septum. Follow the same steps to gather them.

you can find the videos on youtube "how to change/repair......."

See you

Hi,

Did it fixed the problem?
I have the same problem and already replaced the septum, filter and all the ferrules, but no luck.

Any other suggestion or recommendation?
