Bansh-eman Posted May 17, 2008 Report Posted May 17, 2008 you have to drill it out. do a search i made a post many months ago on how to install it. Quote
Bansh-eman Posted May 17, 2008 Report Posted May 17, 2008 actuall it would have been hard to find,,, here what i wrote... for future ref. if your putting a pingle on an ims tank (should also be same for stock) the plastic that seperates the two valves, for the on and reserve positions on your tank... get s razor blade and cut that part straight down... if you messure the gasket it fit a 1/2 inch drill bit perfect. i went one size smaller and use that to clean up the inside of the plastic to smooth out where the razor didnt reach well... took some gas and rinsed out the tank of any loose plastic... now take the pingle base and screw it on the valve... make sure when you seperate the two you leave it facing the right direction of how it will mount on your tank so when you tighten the valve into the base your pingle lines up right... once you decide where it will stop( be sure you dont tighten it much because your going to add thread tape and that will keep it from turning as much once you tighten it down) remove the valve from the base , keeping the base facing the correct direction place the gasket on the tank and screw the base down... now holding the valve with the screen facing you wrap your threads 2-3 time with thread tape clock wise... make ure you dont go off the threads and into the tank as much as you can...smooth out the tape on the threads and tighten the valve down... once you get to where it should aline it should stop just shy of where you hand tightened it before becasue of the thread tape.. grab a rag and wrap your valve.. you can use a wrench or like i did just hands and turn the valve the rest of the way to line it up... fits good and doesnt have much area opened to leak as origanaly thought....

Bansh-eman Posted May 17, 2008 Report Posted May 17, 2008 are you talking about the OEM rubber thing or the oring that comes on the pingle? Quote
jtraptor660 Posted May 17, 2008 Author Report Posted May 17, 2008 the black rubber deal that comes with the dual pingle. Quote
rhino666 Posted May 18, 2008 Report Posted May 18, 2008 the black rubber deal that comes with the dual pingle. it also doesnt hurt to run some black rtv aroung the whole set up once it is installed to insure no leaks...not neccasary but doesnt hurt Quote
