Olive for gas control knobs
Posted: 29 Sep 2009, 21:28
I have the Autohomes conversion, to which is fitted a 3-way manifold control for the heater, hob and fridge gas connections - visible in pic below. as part of an overhaul of the (diabolically bad) interior design I have moved the manifold, which means new 8mm tube all round, which means new olives to the compression joints. Mistake... the standard (Screwfix et al) compression joint olives are too small. Closer inspection reveal the original olives are fancy long, conical affairs, as per the picture. I have no idea where to source them - anyone have a clue?
Or could I just dump the manifold and tee everything off the feed from the gas locker?
