Twin set up?

I seem to recall a while back, stumbling across a website that showed how to correctly fit a manifold to twins.

Can anyone point me in the right direction with a link?

While im here, what torque should the valves be done to, do you need to lubricate the threads etc

TIA Folkes!

Hi Rick,

The Dive rite website has got some info on it. Have a look at the link below, probably not too DIR I'm afraid though...

http://www.diverite.com/tec_talk/doubles/index.htm

When I last disassembled and reassembled a manidold (MDE) in my LDS the only thing that needed torquing (sp) was the pillar valves onto the cylinders.

HTH

That's not the one I was thinking about but will certainly do the trick.
Greenies incoming

Look here -
Assembling Doubles....

You don't need to torque up the valves. Do them up hand tight then give them a single tap with a rubber mallet. All is explained in the link.
