EDIT: Found something. Thanks for the suggestions. Nevermind this thread.


Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I bought a Power Enterprise Hybrid EBC about a year ago from someone on this forum but never installed it. This weekend, I finally pulled it out to install it in the car and I discovered that one of the nozzle stems for the boost control solenoid is MISSING.

Does anyone know where I can get this part? It's the only thing keeping me from getting this thing installed.

It's basically a small fitting with threads on one end that screw into the solenoid, and a barb to connect the hose from the actuator, etc. So I went to Pep Boys, the local hardware, etc. trying to find this fitting. The closest fitting I found is a fitting with 1/8" on the thread end, and a 3/16" barb. But it doesn't fit. I think the fitting must be a metric thread. Who would carry this part?

If you have any idea what I'm talking about, please help me. If pics are needed I'll try. but if you've ever put in a EBC, I think you'll know what I'm talking about.

Sorry for being so long. Thanks again for any help you can give me.

 

I know what you are talking about, you can get it at home depot, i think it is a 1/4" brass fitting.

 

Thanks, VTECH8TR.

I tried the 1/8" fitting but that is just a tiny bit too big. The 1/4" and 1/8" were the only ones even close to what I need, but neither fit. That is why I'm wondering if there is a metric sizing for this part. Or are they only standard measurements? Is there somewhere to source these kinds of parts?

thanks, again.

 

Can anyone else help? Maybe a vendor?

Thanks, again.

 

Go to a shop that carries air compressor parts. They have all kinds of weird fittings and in all the oddball sizes as well.

Thanks. I'll try that.
I hope something works, orI'm losing $300 just for this little piece.
