Good point. If the pipe can=E2=80=99t be replaced, at least install a =
pressure reducer to drop the pressure to about 25 PSI. The reason I =
recommend 25 is that it is the pressure used in RVs so regulators are =
cheap & easy to find.

Even after all the other comments, I'd still be leery of that piece of =
pipe. The wall thickness of 0.009" won't hold much pressure, even if you =
are successful in attaching to it.
Donald.

tubing i.d. is .882=E2=80=9D which is just over 7/8=E2=80=9D
tubing o.d. is .900=E2=80=9D which is just under 29/32=E2=80=9D

a new standard Tee i.d.is .876=E2=80=9D which ain=E2=80=99t gonna fit =

if I can find one fitting to get this to standard 3/4=E2=80=9D size =

did the old stuff differ from todays standard =E2=80=9C
after researching fittings a little I see that there are several =

anyone wanna try and give me some guidance here... the net is confusing =
