Either replace the whole key assembly section or you can get a rebuild kit to rebuild the internals of the key assembly center section.

Can i use silicone instead of the glue?

Silicon may work, but you would have to let it completely dry to hold the gasket in. I have heard of techs using it and the gasket came right out, they didn't let it dry. Also the tech told me the gasket came out after multiple backwashes and then the repair had to be redone. So that's why I don't use it. With super glue, it dries within 10 min and then you can start the system again and know it's there and secure.

Can I just apply silicone if I do not have a replacement spider gasket?

It won't seal correctly.

How do you remove the glued in spider gasket? Mines stuck. No help from acetone, alcohol, razor. I'm getting to close to damaging the plastic with a razor.

I use a flat screwdriver with the end bent like I show at the end of the video. But yes, scraping the old one out and prepping for the new one is where the work is done on replacing a spider gasket.

I modified the tip of a thin screwdriver by bending it and sharpening the end.

Is the same procedure for a sta-rite cristal flo?

If you have a valve like the one in the video that has a gasket glued into the track as shown, you can remove it and replace as shown.

Doesn’t the new gasket need to cure ?

The glue needs to cure some yes. You can always let it cure and then come back next day to turn system on.

Weird how some say use super glue, some rubber cement, some Loc-Tite... no consensus.

If the handle was moved from closed to backwash to rinse and I forgot what position the handle was in when I removed the valve, putting the notches together will still be in correct position? Or did I screw myself

Line up the notch on the side of the filter valve top with the filter valve base, this helps everything line up.
