Oil Pressure Fitting

Recommended Posts

Hi, appreciate your comments for a recent issue.

Recently the line to my oil pressure gage (1939 Plymouth) started weeping and needed replacing.  The flare fitting that forms a seal with the gage is unique, a friend and I were able to remove the old flare and reuse with a new tubing, however removing it from the old tubing took some time.  Does anyone know of a source where these flares can be purchased? 

Thank you for your help,

that bubble can be bought at most any hardware store ...to effect a good seal on any removed ferrule, you will need to cut back to just behind the placement of the old one as the action when tightening is slight compression of the line...that is why these are called compression ferrules
