Do this.

Use the .220 spacer first. Then try a .215 if that doesn't work.

I haven't tried an old Power Tube spring in mine so I don't know if that's your problem or not. Go for a .220 spacer first. Drop it in the power tube and THEN the power tube o-ring (the "incorrect" assembly procedure).

Cut your main spring if this doesn't work.

I cut the first ring off the spring, bent the cut end to lay flat aginst the bolt and it is up an running like a champ... I ended up taking about 3/16" to 1/4" off of the spring.

I've never had to cut my main spring. Use the level 7 main spring. Old used ones work best. Sit them side by side and select the shortest one.

If it still goes semi, then change out your wave spring or try bending it out equally around a bit to make it taller.

Rainman said to just cut the spring and it worked for me. He also stated that many of the original AGD pump kits required you to cut the spring as well. All I know is that my pump is working great now.
