ive irdered a repkacement quick release from Gutsibitz for the tank and fuel pipe on my Breva, but due to the delicate nature of these bits, I'd like to add a quick release in-line to nake it easier and safer.
Where is the best place to get an inline quick release, any links to recommended suppliers and quick releases themselves. Thanks

A cheaper option might be the brass quick release coupling available at gas supply shops. Normally used as a quick release on gas hose pipes for camping bbq grills. Maybe theres a reason not to use these???

Have a look on the Tom Parker website. I brought the metal quick release which are very expensive, but they also sell cheaper plastic ones

Thanks

The only problem I see with that is the fuel line on the Breva is that hard plastic type material , I'm not sure how easy it would be to fit an in line connector correctly to that?

the haed oines can be softened by dipping ending a cup of boiling water, giving it a shake and then sliding o to fit, that's what I did so it was. Isual claps to hold it in place

Sorry for the delay I am currently using the metal ones from www.tom-parker.co.uk. The part numbers required are cLCD170-04V and cLCD220-04V. These have fitted since May, no issues so far I am told told that RS do LCD17004 & LCD22004 metal couplers or prefix those part #'s with P for plastic version. i.e. https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/products/0138262/ or https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/hose-couplings/3872549/ |
