made a simple pressure port...

[Guest_User]

I was just fooling around while waiting for some parts for my truck to arrive and was R&R`ing new valve stems in my OEM wheels.
always wanted a little 1/8 NPT pressure port, so whipped this up for giggles.

removed the valve itself from the tire stem buy cutting away the rubber. Dug up a 1/8 NPT fuel fitting I had in the drawer ( stuff from the hot rod days), cleaned it up and used 2 part epoxy to set in the fitting. done...

I could use this to check the seals in the pumps, and/or install in a home made pressure test kit, whatever it will be useful for...

just wanted to share my boredom...:willy_nilly::lols:

Wow... you must have been board. You can buy 1/8NPT with a schrader valve on the other side.


But... nice work.

Yes so bored I cleaned 27 stainless shank lugs an waxed them in preparation for the winter road salt, yes I knew that...lol... I was just sitting at the work bench waiting, waiting waiting for the UPS guy...

just like this nifty Dial gauge in the old spark plug trick I made for a TDC tool, sure I could buy one at 1,000,000 times the price, but what fun is there in that!:lol:
