Bought a red head box with the group buy got it on wed. I had it installed Friday and yesterday I noticed fluid on the ground under the front of big orange. Crawled underneath to take a look and it appears to be leaking in the area of the fittings. Cannot tell if it's the pressure or the return line leaking. I will wash it off today for a better look. How about you guys do you put some kind of sealer on the threads ? Would that plumbers white tape work? I don't have a lot of money but if i have to I will take it back to the shop that put the box in.

 

If ir is leaking near the fittings, they may not be fully seated/sealed. On the flare fitting it often helps to loosen/tighten a few times to get it seated. Use of a tubing wrench is important to avoid rounding off the nuts.

In any case, if a shop installed it I would take it back. Let them tighten things up. There should be no additional charge to finish the job correctly!

 

I'll do that on Monday, good tip

 

it worked! Your tip about the fittings did the job---- NO LEAKS

thank you very glad for your help

God Bless
