Quick background update:
I just changed my one celli tap over to my other keg.
First keg - allowed gas back into the line between out post and back of tap.
Second keg - no movement of gas into the line.
Hence my theory is outpost in first keg needs servicing... (first keg pours half head, half flat beer - and its only been carbed at 70kPa, at around 4 degrees, been on gas at 70kPa for over a week).
Done a few searches on AHB and Google, have only found this so far:

I have the Keg Seal Kit (From Ross @ Craftbrewer) that came with my kegs. In hindsight I probably should have replaced all my keg posts straight away (Live and learn - feel free to heckle!). The Keg Seal Kit:
Questions (or hopefully just confirmation if I am on the right track...):
1. Can I simply cut the old red rubber off this post and then slip the new one into the recess on the post? (then of course replace the smaller O ring also within the post).

2. Having a devil of a time getting this post off -any hints (assuming I am in the need of a decent ring spanner or long socket with a bit of leverage?).

I would appreciate any input on this!
Cheers.
