Hello I am having trouble with the vacuum pump fittings, on the pump its self and on the instruments. I have sprayed them with silicone spray like the directions say. They say not to use Teflon tape or any liquid form stuff. But when I install the fittings with the silicon and just snug it up I can't get the fittings off without destroying the fittings I Evan had one snap off when I tried to back it out and I only snuged it up a minute before. Any one have any idea what I am doing wrong. I am using the Rapco vacuum pump Kit. Thanks
Bill

Bill,
What is a vacuum pump? Isn't that 50's technology? A
mechanical item that is looking to fail at the most inopportune time?

And with my vacuum pump still working at 830 hrs, while the attitude gyro needs it's second set of bearings.
