AdamR28 Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 Nice one Ok, you actually need quite a lot of fittings... 2x #2 2x #3 4x #5 4x #6 4x #9 4x #10 (Pretty sure that's right but my brain is frazzled and I'm in a rush - have a look t the video below to confirm) This video should help: http://www.hopegb.com/page_mep_force_36.html - I've not watched it for a while, but from memory you just need to strip ~6-8mm of plastic outer from the hose to get the olives over 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
