Hi,
As per title I am in need of finding out what this fitting type is called. It is for my inline mechanical oil pressure gauge so the red side has a connections for the oil pressure gauge pressure and the blue part is an adaptor that is suposed to self lock. I believe it is an aeroquip connection and it supposed to self lock. This is my problem it no longer seems to want to self lock and piss's oil everywhere:crap: any advices welcome.
I have attempted to contact Thinkauto with no success. Might be a trip to Pirtex to see if they have something similar available.

you'll need to take it with you to get the threads matched, let the experts work it out :)

But the earls fittings are nice colours:D





On a serious note Pirtek is only 15 mins away so makes sense to go there first really even if it is just to get them to give me sizes and connection types
