I've had the photos around for a while and figured I'd finally post them, in case anyone cares.
I got some pretty gross Sanke couplers from a frat boy a while back. I figured they needed a complete tear-down.
it's pretty self-explanatory, but anyways, onward!
Material:
Need to measure O-Rings......
Tools:
Flat-head screwdriver
Vise-Grip/Channel-lock
1. Remove the coupler handle screw.
2. Pull the coupling handle straight back. It should not need to be angled in any way.
3. Pull the liquid flow probe out of the the coupler body.
Gross, ain't it?
4. Finished. Want to remove that little ball check? Push a small Phillips head screw driver up the liquid valve. It will push the ball and the check-material out.
I used a bottling brush to clean the grimey parts. I also gave it a good solid cleaner with BKF and pulled a few of the o-rings off to clean. I should really have measured them.....Expect an update at some point with the mcmaster #'s.
