Up graded fresh water pump

[ernieekberg@...>]

On the street side nite stand is a bunch of water lines. All have been patched
with clamps and clear/ webbed tubing. It has been a constant source of mini
leaks and these new to me connectors should make this jon not such a chore. i
still have the red and blue pex tubing left over from last year. One place I
really don't want to mess with is the water tank compartment.

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.)
