Ro/di booster pump question

[Dk638]

Both inlet and outlet john guest fittings on my booster pump are leaking.
I replaced the tubing with new and it didn't fix the leak. Anyway to repair them
Or do I have to buy a new head for the pump? It's an aquatec. Thanks

Are the fittings removable?

 

[Dk638]

no, they are built into the pump housing

Pic?
Behind the plastic locking collar on a jg fitting is an oring. You might be able to change them with an oring from a new fitting.

Heres a pic. On another topic, is this site acting funny or is it just me?

That grey collar should pop out with just your fingers. Don't force it. You should see an oring behind it.
If its a Mur-lok style, there might be 2 orings back to back.

I'll try tomorrow, if I get it out then what?

Change the orings. Buy a couple fittings from depot and use the orings from them. Should work if they are the same size.

Put the original collar back on.

That's what I did for my ph probe fitting.
