He teaches EOD

 

Ah, he has one of the few fun jobs out there, LOL. I may have met him but I don't interact with the EOD folks much.

 

He has been there for awhile now so uou proably have but he goes to german and afgan to teach as well. He probably wont be in a uniform if you see him though because he is a civilian now lol

 

There is a hex nut on the face side of the rim

 

Have any of you guys replaced the master cylinder and have problems? I tried replacing mine but a fitting on one of the fixed lines going into the cylinder is messed up and nothing is fitting correctly. I ended up using the new tank on the old cylinder but the line going from the T to the mater cylinder continues leaking. I'm trying to figure out what to replace the line and fittings with but nothing seems to be working.

 

If a fitting is bad you should just be able to cut it put a new one on the flare the hose.
Or find the part number and buy a new one, unless the threads in the T is bad. Which line is it? Pics?

 

Its the fitting, but the fixed line is too small to just cut it and put a new fitting on. I have a 3/16 line and M10x1.0 fittings I hope work

 

It should

 

It's this one that keeps leaking. Even with the new line and fittings

 

Do you know if that's the right size fitting?

 

Yeah that should be the right size fitting and line, let me double check for you though

 

Okay because that might be my problem and if it still leaks then I'll have to replace the T

 

You said the fitting was damaged, how was it bad? The t threads might be damaged too then. I think dorman Makes replacement lines already bent to shape

 

They over torqued the fitting on so the fitting went over the flare. I can bend the lines it's not a problem.

 

I don’t even know what attempt this is. But let’s hope it works.

 

It’s good! It hasn’t been getting as much attention now that I have my black one. Other than being a daily driver lol. But I need to give it some TLC and touch up the paint on the armor and some rust preventative stuff lol

 

I don't wear a uniform much anymore either.

 

That's still not going to work

You need this: http://nibco.com/Fittings/Plastic-F...FSF-Slip-Fix-Expansion-Joint-PVC-Schedule-40/

 

I used a flexible repair PVC pipe coupling instead, it worked fine. I’m just letting it all cure now.

No more points of stress since I dug up the rest of the plumbing in that corner and re did it.

 

*1 hour later* “whelp that didnt work”
