AGP gasket replacement question.

[vaindioux]

I m replacing the gasket.
Confusion on the outside if the cork goes against the pool wall and the rubber against the cork?
Or the other way around.
All videos on YouTube show it different first LOL
And I read the comments and half say cork against pool and half say rubber.
They say to also not follow the instructions that are wrong.
I suspect cork against pool wall then rubber against cork.

Generally the cork goes against whatever part is supposed to be turning and the gasket, which you want to minimize twisting of.

As such I'd put the inside gasket against the liner, the outside gasket against the pool wall, then the cork, then the nut. The nut will slide along the cork more smoothly than the gasket and let you tighten it without much movement of the gasket.

Rubber on either side and the cork goes between the liner and pool wall.
