Well someone feels my pain! I had the part num and all, from old posts here, go into TSC, they look at me like I had buggars on my face? That was why I was figuring I could get it at Napa, they have a huge warehouse here, I just can't get them to find it either? Thanks For the help. If I can't find the Napa num, I will wait a week or so and try TSC again.
Thanks Bob
THE TSC MODEL IS CRAP! (Made by Slime, I think)
I purchased the adapter a few months ago from TSC. Finally got around to using it this weekend. Here is what I went through to get it to work.
- The "hose end" threads were cut for a 3/4" NPT pipe fitting NOT a standard garden hose fitting.
- I tried to return it for a new one at TSC (1/2 hour car ride, one way) but they did not have any in stock.
So I decided to try to make the one I had work.
- Back in the shop, I dis-assembled the adapter and replaced the "hose end" with an old garden hose end splice kit.
- Next problem was that the adapter for the valve end would not make a tight seal. The little adapter piece was cut too long and the threads bottom out before compressing the seal at the bottom.
Thus causing it to leak leak all over.
- I was able to stuff a couple extra o-rings in the bottom of the adapter and get an OK seal but it still leaked a little.
