lube metering unions

Post by Multispool » Tue 12 Nov , 2013 20:54 pm

Overhauling the central lube system on the easiturn3, is there a method to check flow in the metering unions?

I'm referring to the meter units on and near the manifold: FSB 3/0 and FSB 3/6

Have cleaned them in degreaser and blown compressed air through them, get marginal bubbles the other end at about 60 psi, should imagine it would take a lifetime for oil to get through and fill the pipes...

Are they ok to re-use?
