reading guzzles write up, he says not to put too much silicone lubricant in the slide pin hole as it might hydrolock. when i did my pin a while back i noticed that the pin would be quite tight with pressure but then eventually you could hear air release and the pin would go all the way in, is that the right thing to do, try and get all the air out of the pin hole??
