Hey guys! The o-ring on my RB Adapter broke! I'm leaking small amount of oil everywhere I go when I get the oil pressure is >50 psi... Which is pretty much full throttle and highway cruising. I won't be able to go to RacingBeat this week so I might skip out on the dyno... unless someone lets me borrow their o-ring from their RB oil adapter or has a spare one they can give me then I won't be able to dyno...

Yep... I decided to reposition the RB adapter so that the lines going out of it to my gauge is facing towards me... I think I didn't reseat the o-ring back into the o-ring groove and torque'd down the bolt... after driving for a little bit, I guess the heat and the pressure from it being torqued down caused it to break... I hate the o-ring design on the RB units, they're pretty bad...

If worse comes to worst then I'll just remove the RB adapter... It's not a necessity to have the gauges functioning anyways.

yup, that'll be fine Sleeper. If you're showing up for Lunch (aka PIZZA) just make sure you chip in some cash to cover the bill. Thanks!

Can't believe we're only a few days away from this...

It's a pretty big Oring, the size of an oil filter.

If anyone gets ahold of Jeff, ask him to give me a call. Since he can't log in here.
