Thanks agian P.J.!

I was looking at Mopar1973man's site last night and some pix this am by DodgeCowboy!

I was thinking on a post asking if anyone is in the Austin -Bastrop Tx area would want to assist me in tooling on this in the next couple of weekends or after work. I don't have a workshop yet and it gets dark now at 5:30, (I hate Daylight savings time) so I have to work by lead light unless someone has a shop and the inclination to help--hint-hint!

 

Oh, wow, yeah I see. He's clean down below Austin.

Anyway, theres someone down there too, just not like being in College Station or anything...........

 

Well, good luck buddy.

I forgot, the purpose of the needle valve is three fold.

1) only allows tiny amount of actual volume up to the gauge (not like having full 1'8th inch line.

2)Serves as a "snubber" to protect the gauge from harmful pulses the VP may put out.

3) Emergency (or maintenance) shut off valve. Common sense in my opinion to have a way to shut things off.

 

PJ got that right...

I would rather have a shut off... Than a isolator... Trust me I kinked the line once and instead of taking a chance of failure/leakage I shut down the gauge.
