Age old problem of leak down on long trips. Looks to be an easy conversion except I need some metric fittings.......str aight, 45, and 90 degree fittings with M10, 27 pitch tapered thread (pipe t hread) and M12, 24 pitch flare (37 degree best I can measure). Need two of the 90 degree fitting and 1 of the other fittings. Hole is 4 mm. Anyone have any of these fittings or know where they can be sourced? =C2- ThanksAnthony ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 11:14:44 AM PST US From: "Jorgen Nielsen" Subject: RE: L29-List: Nitrogen Shut Off Hi Anthony I did this years ago and been very happy since. Never had any problems with it. It opens up away flights as well, as you can fly there, close valve, and have enough for return trip. Just don=99t forget to open it J You might try Yak owners as well =93 some of the air fittings used on the Yaks are the same as L29 =93 this should make it easier for you to find stuff, lots more Yaks around. Do you use your oxygen system?
