Hi does anyone know where to get a 1/4 x 1/8 x 1/4 T hose connector to link the manifold pressure to the lightspeed box (1/ tube as well as to the AFS manifold transducer (1/4)?



Many thanks

Michael

Spruce, Ace Hardware, Home Depot, Lowes... I think they all have them, but try Ace first.

I got mine from Aircraft Spruce.  Get all 3 connectors 1/8".  Use a small piece for the tubing from LS (~ 3/8" long) and slip it into one end of a 1/4" piece of tubing that goes to the AFS transducer.  Push the 1/4" end with the 1/8" piece from LS onto the T.  It will lock on just fine.

I did a similar thing since I could not find a "T" that was 1/4 - 1/8 - 1/4.  

  

 I found a 1/4 to 1/8 reducer at Pep Boys.

 Using a short piece of tubing, I connected the 1/4 to 1/8" reducer to the 1/4" T.  The "T" was from Aircraft Spruce.

 The 1/8" portion goes to the Lightspeed while the 1/4" goes to the bulkhead fitting and the AFS sensor.

  

 At the firewall I have a 1/4" bulkhead connector with a restrictor (drilled rivet porsealed in place) going to the manifold pressure port.
