New fix but another problem....

I've receive the new fittings. Better quality, stronger spring and made by Dixon. Note: this new modification provided you with only two quick disconnect fittings and the attachments on the flow divider are now fix!
But I am facing another problem. After the installation of the new fittings on the flow divider, I discover a crack on the body of the valve. I immediately contacted Danmar and within 3 hours received a phone call from a nice gentleman, Gabe (the same one that call me for the fittings failure) and he is sending me a new valve. The over torque fittings possibilities cannot be a factor in the cracked body according to the Danmar rep.

The after sale service is pretty good but I'm still waiting to get a good working tool ;-) Hope yours are working fine, J.P.

Glad to hear they were helpful! I have a leak coming from my body and the place where the hose attaches to the body. I replaced the teflon tape and still get leaks... I will call them soon.

Hard to say where it is coming from. May be coming from the junction of the body. Anyway don't forget to submit those pictures when you contact the service department. I hope you will get good result with the them.

Do not use teflon tape on oil.. Use a sealant meant for oil..

Where's the best place to purchase the 90 Deg angle adapters and hose? I was thinking of wall mounting my power unit and running one side up and over the lift area to the wall... do you think this would cause any issues having one hose longer then the other?

jpflip, do you use your 3" adapters which came with the MaxJax? If not, would you sell them to me? I called Danmar and they wanted $100 for them... figure most people are too low to use them so I was going ping people i've spoken with to see if they use them or don't need them... let me know! Thanks!

Sorry Isaad but I was not going to use them until my daughter bought a Scion XB. Now I need them for oil change... Good luck with your research!

Do not forget to go on Rennlist for your research especially here: http://forums.rennlist.com/rennforum...ved-today.html
