i think he means the internal oring. probably safer to replace it...... just in casey....

 

[Skeet]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I wouldn't mate...you dont lube fill nipples...why do you need to?
If its leaking etc then the o-ring is poopered, flip it over or replace it.

And I always replace my fill nipples with CP ones.

cp ones have always been **** imho from my experience

will just flip it

i *know* that dow 33 is safe tho but its like devils advocate.

its not a big leak, and went away after i "hit it" with some air a few times at the fill station

 

[Skeet]

Really?
I have never had a problem with the CP ones...I mean, yeah the o-rings go after a while, but the amount of work they do, it's going to happen.
