Hold off valve

[wilky70]

I have purchased two Inline Tube hold off valves BLK247 and they both leak where the valve threads in to the brass body. Seems like a poor manufacturing process wherever they are made. (China?) I have contacted tech support and they tell me nobody else has had the issue. Does anyone restore the original valves?

My Inline tube hold off valve was junk too

Try some flare gaskets. They can correct for poor machining and incorrect seat angles.

Not sure what a hold off valve is. I have had 3 bad distribution blocks. Holes drilled and machined at an angle, junk. Did not get them from Inline tube, but probably from the same mfr. Inline tube is not my first choice for tubing after 2 bad experiences. I know, most people haven't had bad luck with them, but here we are.

Threads are made to put something together and do not create a seal.....

If I eliminate the hold off valve from the system will affect pedal feel?
