It shoulda came with some fittings

If its got compretion fittings (brass) your prob ok -
U can use teflon tape on the thread but ya prob dont have to.
a Intake leak test should tell you if your leaking at the gauge at all.

I used teflon tape on my brass fittings just incase, it seems like cheap insurance to me since a roll doesn't cost that much at all! I hate when things top working right so I try to solve all problems ahead of time. Good luck.

Heh, I have a broken foot so it gives me an excuse to extensively read all the posts. I was going to use a different word but I couldn't spell it so I didn't want to kick myself in the nads.
