Get the real AI adapter as mentioned by Coach.

You probably made the problem worse by lubing your o-ring since oil will cause the rubber to swell. Actually, now that I mention swelling, that's probably what happened. Using oil in the adapter probably got into the o-ring after so many uses.

Same idea with hopup rubbers - do not let oil get in there.
