I know he wouldn't know it for his first cannon. He's been on spudfiles for months now though. He should know how to do this stuff. Do I need teflon? It's about the dumbest question I've ever heard! He should at least know by now that you should search the site and the wiki before asking dumb questions!

Well you should go lick a horses ass crack. I didnt use teflon on my first gun and there where no leaks at all. So you dont NEED it but it usaully helps. Instead of argueing how about you just help him. OK :x

ok so for tapping a hybrid is there anything that you havn't talked about that should be done when taping for a hybrid? it seems like it should be VERY strong connection for a hybrid. i bought a 1/2'' steel 90degree elbow but i cant find a tap that large that connects right up to the rest on my meter. what size tees do you guys ushewaly use?
thanks

Can it guys.

I usually use 1/4" fittings for everything except the sections of meter assemblies that actually do the metering or for any control valves that use 1/8".
