What kind of tubing connector is this? fscked up something

This is a part of the Bijur lubrication system. The tubing is really tiny, maybe 1/8" OD. It is used to deliver oil to the head. When disconnecting the head, I may have pulled the tube too hard and that's the result. It tore off. What sort of connectors are used in those and how would I fix it once I get it home? i |

Or it might need a plastic compression sleeve . What kind of pressure is on those one-shot's ? Couple of psi maybe ? -- Snag "90 FLHTCU "Strider" '39 WLDD "PopCycle" BS 132/SENS/DOF |

They are a one-shot and you toss the used piece away and buy a new one. Most "good" hardware stores, and Napa often have these. Ive also found them at Home Despot.

: What sort of connectors are used in those and how would I fix it once I get it home? Looks like minature oil gauge line. Mostly they use compression fittings. LLoyd |

You should be able to get them from somewhere reasonably local (my supplier is on the wrong continent for you). If all else fails, you can turn them up out of a piece of 1/4"-3/8" brass bar in a few minutes, DAMHIKT. Mark Rand RTFM |
