Josh Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Ok, I have an autometer c2 series boost gauge. it has a 1/8" NPT screw on fitting on the back of it, It didn't come with any pushlock fitting for the shitty little hose that it come with, but I don't want to use that anyway. What i'm after it a screw on fitting that will convert the rediculously hard to find 1/8" NPT thread to something more common that engineering places stock. Because what i want to do it have a screw on fitting on the back of the gauge that will then convert down to a barb fitting to take a push on hose that I can clamp. Anyone understand what I mean, and more importantly, where the hell can I get this type of fitting? It seems like I've tried everywhere but I'm sure someone knows somewhere that may have what i'm after! Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegreatestben Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Repco sells a little pack of fittings and line to suit gauge. Not sure whether it has that particular size but I seem to remember my autometer boost gauge having one in my supra It's trisco brand, if they say no insist they look harder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 Left a diagram of what i wanted and my phone number there, they never got back to me. May pay to go back in there at soem stage if I have no other leads. It certainly didn't seem like they had them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
