    I think you're right there, good thing about it is over here cause we're 20 years behind they still use (dont tell anyone) the R12, so there's a poss chance i'll find one here

    OOOOHHHH. Unable to back my claim up, other than there IS a rumor going around AND the word on the street said so.

    ALSO this is what Meat-City-Vauxhall use on there fuel pressure gauge
    on vauxhalls! VERY usefull if you need to syphon a bit out of a customers car.

    Unable to explain your problem

    UNLESS you don't have the bussiness end - just the gauge end?

    Its is the same, the nob jockey waste of space dick head in the shop gave me the wrong one, Ive been here 18 years and me Spanish is not that bad, I went to the shop with this:



    and told him I wanted the 7/16 fitting, he gave it to me and on the invioce it does say 7/16 fitting, I even asked him if he had a smaller one, the next size down and he said no thats the smallest, I tried it on the car that evening, late, it didnt fit I thought boloix so I took the plastic dust cap with me, the next morning went back to the shop and asked him if he had a male fitting that will fit in the plastic cap so he got one then I asked him for a female hose fitting for the male fitting he just gave me, he said its the same as the one I gave you yesterday, no its to big as im trying to fit them together, OH sorry he said, I gave you the wrong one, here's the right one, I could have punched him, so yes it is 7/16 the same as the R12 low side
