I spent some time over the last couple of days looking at the fuel line dry-break quick disconnect couplers I've got, and I thought I would share my findings. ...
Good info, Michael. I bought a pack of 100 viton o-rings from MSC years ago, and still have most of them. If you connect and disconnect the fittings...
Caveat: I've never measured O-rings before, so buy those numbers at your own risk. I did compare the smaller one to my o-ring set and it seemed the right...
Coudn't agree more about the O'rings, mine used to come apart all the time before I switched to Viton. Glad to see the manufacturers have seen the light and...
