Geo 3 leak

[Labouch]

Hi,
Just got a geo 3 and there is a very faint leak coming from the macroline fitting on the asa. I suspect that the macroline itself is slightly too long but I don't want to start hacking it up without some other opinions.
Could anyone with a geo 3 possibly post a pic up of their macroline next to a ruler?
Cheers ballers

Have you swop it around

Sometimes that works or give it a wiggle mine always used to do it

I'll try swapping it around, I had wiggled it and the leak did lesson but was still present, also lubed the macroline which again lessened the leak
Cheers

It still leaks if you look at the photo, the macroline is forced down rather than coming straight out of the fitting, think I may just buy some macroline and play around with the length, I'm fairly certain that's the cause

It appears to have just sorted itself out now, can't hear anything.
Thanks mclovin!

Check the fittings are tight, take the macroline off and put the correct allen key INSIDE the fitting to check it is fully tight.
Maybe take the opportunity to remove it and ensure the o-ring on it's base is in good condition, lube and replace the fitting snugly.

I'll give that a test later on then, it didn't feel loose when I was fiddling around before though.
Cheers for that.
