port/hose adapter??

[hugedodge2000]

I have an oceanic instrument cluster and on the end of the hose that ataches to the 1st stage the fitting is wider than the hole in the port on the first stage. Do they make an adaptor to make the to fit or am i gonna have to get a new first stage???

At the risk of sounding very foolish, are you trying to screw an HP hose into an LP port?

No its an hp port and nevermind on this thread guys......but if you need to know......www.diveriteexpress.com has adapters for this sort of problem. Thanks anyways.

Yes, they make adapters, I have several. The adapters can be purchased going both ways, 7/16 to 3/8 and vice versa. Go to Diverite Express. They have them. They are quite common. Not that long ago LP and HP were the same size. Of course, no they are not because people tend to not read the HP designation and scew a LP hose into an HP port with surprising results, I seen it ---kaboom! The adapters work well and will cause you no problems as long as you pay attention. N
