Other places online have said that's all you need to do, but please understand: this does not constitute formal advice and if you blow your nuts off using the wrong regulator it's on you :P

(sorry but I get a little testy around some of the pressurised stuff :P)

Just be damn careful you're not overpressurising anything - make sure there's a PSI gauge somewhere in that system.


what's that saying again .....something about horses, water ....that's it! ....something about leading a horse to water!!

I'll look at my princess auto regulator tonight to see what thread size the gauge needs to be and I'll pick one up for you at Princess Auto.  I'll be at the meeting this weekend so I'll give it to you then.  I should probably replace mine too so I can see an actual PSI.  I've been getting accurate readings with my spunding valve gauge.

I think a decent gauge is about $9.  they also have really nice liquid filled gauges for $15.  they are extra big and you can buy them in 30, 60 and 90 PSI.  I bought a 30psi max for my spunding valve...very accurate.

Let me know which one you want....I believe the cheap ones are 100psi gauges.

That would be perfect, I should be good to go for the meeting too.

Might as well go with the 9$ guage... but if they are out, get whatever you can.

Thanks again!

sounds good, I'll pick one up for you.

by the way, this regulator doesn't have a check valve in it.
