Noob ? on C02 bottle setup

[JohnSWA]

Ok, I know that this is probably a stupid noob question, but I bought a used kegerator that was set up for sanke kegs. It has a 20 lb co2 bottle and a 3/8" line coming from the regulator. I just bought a couple of pin lock kegs and a two line manifold and all of the compression fittings are 1/4". Do I need an adapter for the manifold 3/8 - 1/4? I'm pretty sure that will do the trick, but hey, I'm a total noob to kegging and I'm so much looking forward to never bottling again!

Thanks for your help! Cheers!

Yeah that'll work if you can find the parts. Or step down your 3/8" gas line to 1/4". Take your parts to home depot and start trying combinations until you find what works.

Ideally, you want as few connections as possible to minimize the chances for a leak.

Thanks, FJ! That sounds like a reasonable plan!
