Time to upgrade [FIX] my One-Shot oilier

[Paul Jr]

For info I replaced all of the push-to-connect fittings with compression style fittings (1/8" NPT x 1/4" hose). I had issues with the PTC leaking and hoses blowing out of the fittings. No leaks with the compression fittings.

Well Crap... everything I got was push to connect, couldn't get the right size fittings in compression anywhere online. Locally the male thread ends were far too large to go where I need them. I was concerned about the push fittings leaking under pressure... Thanks for the heads up.

I have a mix of compression and push-to-connect fittings and have not yet had any issues with the push-to-connect connectors.

I use all push-to-connect fittings on mine and have had zero trouble. You need to use the hard plastic tubing.

Thanks Jay, I learned something new today. I use clear Tygon tubing in my lube system. Maybe that box of P to C fittings has a future.
