    That's a great tip with the soapy water. $100 for that little piece...crazy! Good job with the brass.

    Ever need fittings, i go to Napa auto parts. Or i go to a water/air hose company, they have all type of fittings. None over $20, even the air tank fittings. Stay safe

    I keep wanting to fix my own air leaks but I always end up getting someone else to fix it. This video definitely helped me build some confidence and get a set of fittings. Thanks man

    I've heard of some people using powder dye in the system. Soap water works on the fly for whatever it reaches

    I bought a small pocket slide caliper and it’s awesome for measuring broken parts accurately. I can get the exact screw or bracket I need from the parts store without having to second guess or start from scratch.

    Ok but the air leak I’m looking for is not air coming out but air being sucked into the fuel system. How do we find that leak because it will never leak diesel but it’s enough to suck in air and bleed down overnight

    Go to a plumbing store it will save you tons of cash . Nut and farrow is the only way to go. Or you can call your company and they will fix it lol .. I think you must be a o/o like myself its cheaper to fix it yourself

    No, the reason that the fitting is so expensive is because they LOVE to gouge truckers. It's a fucking disgrace.
