Olympia Cremina 67 piston seals = Cremina 2011 seals?

Postby Paolo on Mon Aug 29, 2011 6:37 pm

Do current (2011) Creminas have the same piston seal set as the 67 Creminas?

In the archives of my mind I seem to remember reading that the Millenium model had different seals which are now not available from the Olympia factory and that the factory has reverted to using the 67 piston and seals in the current models. Am I imagining things or is this the way that it is? If you could attach a link that exposes all, I would appreciate it.

Cheers,
Paolo

Yes, 2011 and 67 seals are the same.

They are the same style. Are you sure they are the same size? I have both, and thought I measured and found that they were different. Memory may be failing me though.

The new and old model seals are identical when you line up one against the other.
