The leakage happens from the hose connection to cylinder, from both the bigger hose and smaller hose. There is no o-ring in there. The leakage comes from the threading. As I fasten it to far enough, it still leaks.

My question is do I need an oring for this connection? I tried to search for it but nowhere give a description. I also tried different size o-rings, not working. Or do I need a thread sealer for that connection? I used loctite blue but still failed.

Thanks. s-l500.jpgs-l1600.jpg

Sorry, didn't notice it's the Force board. Should have posted in the Mercury board.
