    Not sure if the picture is telling the truth, but please check your coupler distance for the nylon tubing as from the picture, they look too far apart? According to the recommendations, the optimum gap is found to be between 1/32” and 1/16”.


    Hope this helps,
    Dave

    Dave, you have excellent eyes! I'll double check the gaps today. The machine has been taken down and setup several times since that picture but it wouldn't surprise me if it was still incorrect. Thanks! :idea:
