    When I went to install my 3rd function I had to fiddle with the quick connects because the balls were full of grit. I found this stuff on Ebay. It's thick, tough and shrinks tight. A piece soaking in hydraulic fluid so far seems unaffected. I engraved the port numbers on the nipples and tossed the crappy colored caps.

    Ah Sir Screwloose. The next time you wish to make a link, go to that website and copy the address from the top bar. Paste that into your post and Bingo! Now good luck on keeping your balls clean.
