Guys,
When we came out with the separators 2 years ago we researched the fittings in depth. We didn't want ugly brass, so we found black plastic fittings that were up to the temp ratings and use with oil, but still some have failed.
As soon as we realized it was an issue we has custom aluminum fittings milled to our specs and started including them since Aug 2011.
We apologize for the issue, but stand behind our product 100%.
If you have this happen, contact me direct and I will take care of it ASAP. [email protected]
Send me a pic of the broken fitting along with your name and address and it's done.
Again, sorry for the issue.
Jay
No worries Jay, thanks for helping out.
