Ok So I purchased a dieselsite auxiliary transmission filter setup and after hooking it all up and Teflon taping all the proper fittings I had some leaks I tightened them up so I think I have those sealed now. But my biggest problem are the metal lines going into the filter housing they keep leaking I have taken them off and tightened them back down at least three times the fourth time I think I got it. I will have to crawl under there today once I get home to check. Also in the process of torquing these fittings down I ripped out a bolt on the filter base so I will have to get a new one. Is there something wrong with what I am doing? The ends on the metal lines are flared so I shouldn't have to tighten them down that much to seal them up right? Also when they did leak it was coming around the tube and not the threaded part.:confused013: I am also wondering if anyone knew the possible fittings to convert the metal lines to the push lock fittings and high pressure hose. Any thoughts would be awesome I know its a lot but I hope to find out if I am doing something wrong hear I have been dealing with it all weekend.
