do you srll tanks that are more than 850 psi? I know you could remove shims but i never have done that . thanks

They sell one with an output of 3000psi!!! Also, adding shims raises pressure, and it is simple. You just need an allen wrench. Make sure to empty the tank first.

ninja does make one that is super high output but those are more for automags. i wouldn't use them on modern markers especially electros.

I put mine on a tank from 1985 and it works. It is trial and error in the sense that I had to make adjustments. You can always call the company as I did a few times; I found them to be very helpful.

I do not know. I have not used my as of yet. The data says you can use it with R-22. Therefore I would start with the connections on the tank and move up the line. Now the tanks, have apparently differently fittings. and this is where you may need to buy the special connectors.

Before you buy this or any other siphon item, get a flexible piece of hose small enough to fit down the neck of your gas tank and try to reach the gas. Many new cars have baffles in the filler neck making it impossible to reach the gas in the tank and siphon gas from it. Probably for EPA or safety (crash) reasons, but it is what it is. Don't wait for a hurricane and find out you can't get gas out of the tank.

I run with this tank on my mini and it works quite well. If you have a stock ASA on the mini it might be a tight fit, mine ground down the threads on the tank but other than that its a pretty good. Filled up 3 times yesterday over a 5 hour duration.

I haven't tried. If anything, i need to find a way to drop the float. My tank shows empty when I have 1/4 of a tank. My tank is 11 3/4" deep and I bought the 11" model. I just haven't had time to do it. It's better than the arm style sending unit. I had to shorten it to clear the baffle in the tank that it was all wrong. I hope this helps.

Let your tank run down to almost empty, add the BG 44K and then fill up the tank. Works great.

Its really easy to modify this if it does not fit your tank. check out Youtube.

I didn't have problems with mine. I normally run 90 psi and I don't think my depth was maxed. If your running a long line or small hose you might be starving the gun.

Might be overkill for a tank that small. I believe Hydor makes a smaller version than the 425 that might be more suitable...

Just installed this past Friday. Watch the spacing between the pistons, and you should be fine. Mine is finally pumping up too 120 psi before shutoff.

I believe all verticle softener tanks have a standard neck size. I installed a Fleck 5600 SXT on a 30 year old Rain-Soft softener tank. I would not advise anyone without mechcanical experience to challange this modification process. The old head was bronze and had to be wrenched off from start to finish and took out the last 2 1/2 threads from the tank. The Fleck head has a full 1" of threads that had no problem adhearing tothe remaining 3/4" of threads. The latteral center tube was a different diameter and had to be modified to fit the Fleck head. After all is done my 30 year old softener is like brand new and works great.

I used Teflon tape when I replaced my unit but it might be okay without (better safe than sorry). I'd image it would depend on the port on the tank itself as much as the valve. I will add that this is a very slow valve. It takes a lot longer to air up a tire than my tank's original valve.

"what kinda of compressor should i use for these?" Hi, I found a very nice compressor... V-Power 21 gallons and 2.5HP and max at 125psi.... It is just enough to give intermittent blasts on the impact wrench. I might add an extra storage tank to possibly kick it up to 30-ish gallons? The perfect world is 30 gal. and with 5HP might be the better spec. Hope this helps.

I bought a half pint size for a 5 gallon motorcycle gas tank and had some left over, a pint might work but maybe need a quart ,tank had rust in it so put some nuts from bolts and shook it until it was clean worked nice

On occasion have found tank dried out. I usually mix 25:1 with next octane level up (may or may not help). Mine will not start unless the trigger throttle is in the start, or preset position, and only start lying on the ground, one foot on the handle bar, and usually two pulls, then choke mid range, and third pull gets it. Will admit sometimes needs a few more pulls, but always starts this way. Never been able to start it standing up.Have mine 3 years now, farm use.

you did good, but usually i only go 18 flats and when you tighten the push rod you loose a 1/4 turn. try that..just fyi, start process with the rear intake fully open( push rod all the way up!!) adjust the front intake 18 flats, put the front intake up, adjust the rear intake 18 flats, do the same for the exhaust you should be fine!! fire up go riding!! dont worry about the bleed down, you will be fine..any questions you can call 7326008340
