I have 2 sets of Dacor Pacer XL's that are in good usable shape, my hoses just leak. So I am shopping dive gear express for some braided hose, just need to know what size the fittings are on these regs (1st to 2nd stage low pressure hose)?

I know they're old, I know you can't rebuild them, so let's skip with that stuff. They work, and they've been good to me, just need hoses.

Thank you
 
What first stages do you have? There will be numbers (hopefully) on the yoke screw cap.
 
Both Dacor, one is a 900, the other is a 950.

I took a quick look at the DGX page and it seems all the LP hoses are 3/8" so if you have a 1/2" port then you need a $1.75 adapter. Your second stages can be rebuilt using after-market parts. Your first stages are a bit more challenging but I am sure something can be done. Check out NESS.
 
Thank you, but do I need 3/8 or 1/2" LP hoses? That's the entire point of this thread.....

Is there any easy way to measure them myself? I'd like to get these in and replaced before my next dive (14th)

Dacor Pacer XL 2nd stage use standard 2nd stage LP hoses. Dacor 900 and 950 1st stages have standard 3/8" LP ports.
 
Yea, mine have not given me any fits. I am excited that people are starting to make replacement parts for these awesome regs again. There is no reason why they shouldn't continue to be serviceable. I just need to O2 clean mine and get them prepped for Nitrox.

If you will use nitrox up to 40 % O2, there is no reason to "O2 clean" it.
