If you have a good auto shop or "speed Shop" available they will have crush washers. Most of the newer GM cars use a metric banjo fitting at the brake calipers.

Or you could just call me. I do try to stock all the small parts to keep us in the air.
Just ask for the KY2 compressor kit. It contains all the proper alu crush seals, a new stainless steel poppet valve spring, and a new compressor filter.
I also stock new compressors if needed. There is no difference in the M14P and the HS6A compressor other than the "clock" position of the poppet, which is easily changed.

[quote]Good news from the hangar, my compressor is fine. The first thing I did was to take the filter off and cover the compressor intake with a latex glove. Propped it 6 blades and all the air was sucked out of the glove. That was a nice surprise. We then removed the check valve and found the piston jammed with carbon. After a good cleaning we put it all back together with new crush washers and I flew a 5 min test flight. Pressure was maintained above 30. After shutdown a good whoosh from the snot valve. Thank you all for the tips and thank you Dennis for your expert input. Back in business in very short order. Gord[b]
