Hydraulic Thumb on BH77

[awesome]

Everything is plumbed for the rear valve. Sorry, I hijacked my owned thread to talk about the rear remote.

But I get a leak from there:

That's the section between the PB sleeve and JIC fitting. Am I supposed to have a seal in there? I noticed that the sleeve goes deeper than the lenght of my fitting, so it wont press against the bottom. So am I using the wrong fitting or am I supposed to have a seal in there?

If the port in the sleeve is JIC you dont need a seal.

If its BSPP you need a sealing washer.

What say the company that sold ypu the valve?

The valve port is bspp.
The male end of the sleeve, going into the valve is bspp. I dont know what the female end is but there is a bevel inside, just like JIC fittings.

Where did you get the sleeve? JIC fittings must bottom out.

My guess is the sleeve is SAE o-ring boss.

I got it from princess auto. The inside looks like this

Really looks like a female JIC but much longer. So way the fitting can touch the bottom of the sleeve

SAE port. You need one of these.

So end #1 is "sae" ? And I need an oring?
My fitting looks like that except that end #2 is npt for me

You need an SAE male to JIC male fitting. It comes with the o-ring.

What did you use in the other ports in the valve?

I'm sorry, I'm confused. Which part goes in the sleeve? The SAE?

My valve has G1/2 ports. I have bspp-M to npt-M adapters on the other ports.

I want to connect a npt-m hose on my PB port.

I suspect the female port in the PB skeeve is SAE oring boss. Same thread type abd size as JIC .If your hose is male NPT this would work

Ah, now I understand. Thank you.
I just looked at images of SAE oring boss and yess, it does look like that.
What confused me is that this section looks like JIC
