I picked up a Mocal sandwich adapter with built in thermostat for my oil cooler a few years back. At the time, I used some brass connectors to hook up to my oil line hoses and I think they are just "pipe thread" fittings.
I was able to tighten them down only about half way, with some threads still visable. Does this adapter require some special fittings? It had started leaking around the threads after a few years. Have I permanantly ruined my adapter? I used "pipe thread sealant" on the threads before assembly. Should I use something different, like teflon tape? thanks |

I believe it is 1/2" pipe thread.
