For you Weber guys running the Holley FPR

Post by copenhagenfiend »

My car runs great with the weber, like abusive burnouts to make purists cry 'great' - coupled with the full 2" exhaust it's downright awesome. But the nipples on my FPR leak. I need a lead on what you used that worked, threads, size, pitch, an order link would be great! Anything to put me on the right track when I get back from ND!

They are just NPT(tapered pipe thread) fittings available at most auto parts and hardware/building supply store. I use a ptfe thread sealant paste to seal them. Teflon tape can work too, but I get worried about bits coming off and clogging something down the line.

Like him, I used sealant.
