I heard the fitting is too deep so it won’t screw down tight. The washer must fit inside the fitting and it will be obvious which way it goes, just match the curve of the inside of the fitting. This is the fitting, you can see how that washer goes. How did you get them to send the washers?
Try some graphite powder, it comes in a little bottle that you can puff into the cylinder to loosen up and lubricate it. I know that sounds dirty...
Excellent! This should work perfectly! I wish I would have contacted them too! I threw out the line after all the trouble with it, and ended up paying for a custom one. (Oh well.. no leak..!)
Exactly. The fitting bottoms out before it seals onto the line. This will bring the seal out enough to actually make contact with the line, and compression -fit seal it.
Which reseal kits/methods have you tried? I’m gathering information as I know that it will leak at some point.
I purchased 2 different seal kits on Amazon. Figure 8 and round seals were replaced.Most of the hydroboost conversion articles and videos that I’ve seen recommend getting a new hydroboost unit rather than a used one, which postpones the leaking.
Don’t have a vise?
odd. You can use threaded rod and fender washers and nuts. I pressed mine by hand with a bunch of lube... They are split so its pretty easy...
Do not like.
