Awesome! Cheap and easy. How did it get loose? Not tightened enough first time? Or aging of the o-ring and back up ring made it loose compression/tightness. Maybe a prophylactic front o-ring change due too?
In the video....is that fitting not exactly straight and lined up or is that just an illusion? Could that be contributing to the initial failure? Doesn’t look like the compression nut is completely flat. Might just be my imagination not seeing it in person. Last edited by wslade2 : 12-14-21 at 08:39 PM. |

![]() I think illusion, definitely wasn't cross threaded when removed. I think the nut got loose overtime, hoses were replaced in 2019 annual, possibly wasnt tightened down 100%. That Annual was 85 hours ago, noticed gear slowing down maybe 15 hours ago. But yeah, im glad its an easy problem to fix and didnt lead to a catastrophe. Thanks for your help with this.
Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
