push-in water fittings leaking

I have the same prob with an everpure system I just installed. A couple leaked
but I just took the tubing, fine-sanded the tubing that goes into the fitting
(tube side and blunt end) and stopped all but one. It's driving me nuts so I'm
looking for a heat-shrink tape seal.

I've never heard of heatshiink tape stopping a leak under pressure.

Why don't you people from hubbahubba ever quote anyone.

It's a puzzlement, isn't it? :-)

It would not have mattered much because what "Ray" replied to was
*TWELVE years old!* "Terry" cured his leak in January 2004. "hubbahubba"
people (I like that!) can't read dates.
