Up graded fresh water pump
Go ahead and order the little tool they offer if you have very many
fittings. I used channel-lock pliers, but that tears up the 'grips'
on the outside of the threaded ends. Since I only had 4 fittings I
didn't bother with their tool, but it would have made for a better
looking installation. (Actually, I didn't notice their tool until
after I'd submitted my order.)
