    Hank, Some have not had good luck with the Swagelok check valves. One member of our group had four of these fail on a trip to Oskkosh several years ago. The more robust Chinese replacements are still working. Where Swagelok does a great job is for replacing the original Chinese main and emergency air on-off valves as described by Jason Berman. Mine have been fine for years. The smaller size requires two simple adaptors so the connecting air lines don=99t have to be re-done. Attached is a picture of my emergency on-off valve with adaptors that duplicate the original line positions. For those who have not yet done this replacement, the current black handle valve for the main air is part number SS-42GF2-A-WN2 and the red handle part number is SS-42GF2-A-RD-WN2. Replace and forget. Really nice. One less thing to cause problems.

Problems solved and no more fiddling with rubber discs/crush seals and bodies which loosen. All six for about $280. To me worth the price to improve health of pneumatic system. Old nipples with flare are transferred and work with a 1/8=9D NPT Swagelok. Part number is =9CSS-2C4-xx (last number is =9Ccrac king pressure=9D which is not critical, may be 1/3, 1, 10 and 25 , I believe).

The hard rubber disk over the metal cap on top of the spring may take a while to properly seat. Soaking the hard rubber cap in glycerine sometimes helps. A few will continue to leak no matter what and need to be replaced. A simple test of individual check values before going through the trouble of installing them is to connect an air pressure gauge via a B-nut on the outflow side and then pressurize the inflow side to 50 ATM (735 PSI). After turning off and removing the air source, the pressure on the outflow side should hold. A common point of failure and annoyance is on the right side of the oil tank where a pair of check valves separate air flow into the main and the emergency systems. >> >> It=99s also not a bad idea to replace check values that have been in place for a long time. The amount of internal corrosion can be astonishing.

You really ought to have the CJ parts manuals. Refer to Parts Book Vol 1, pages 442-448 for all things check valves. Will all make sense.

For the individual sides, do the check valves just screw apart? I disassembled the T the other day and tried to take one of the valves apart but it was so hard to turn that it appears to need a vise.

    CJ or YAK? The YAK check valves that have been in use for a few bears are a bitch to get apart. I personally think they use epoxy on the groves. It takes a vice and a torc to get them apart on occasion. Be prepared to replace all of the guts in that case. You can just send them to Cliff Coy to rebuild with Parker air system parts. They hone the case to do that. Or you could replace the with Dzongkha Sapps Kit.
