My new ball valve will allow you to actually put a gauge right on the other end of the valve. No oil lines needed. Adjust the valve until you get the desired psi. Take the gauge off and install oil lines. (----, I'm gonna go have sex with myself for coming up with that one. lol)

if you temprarly put a gauge dirctly at the end of the valve...there would be nowhere for the oil to escape..so wouldnt it end up being the exact same pressure as b4 the valve once it fills the tube up? id jsut be like haveing a smaller line thats all.. and smaller lines dont equal less pressure when theres nowhere for the oil to escape to at the other end... follow me? im i correct on this? seems logical to me...

when you turn the water in the sink off slowley doesnt the flow slow dow and the preasure drop.

Its the same thing.with the guage on there you set the flow/pressure,remove the guage(not the valve),and put your oil line in.VUALA!

the pressure drops because there is still somewhere for the water to escape to....now if you were to cap off the end of the focet and slowly turn it down, itd still be at the same pressure wouldnt it? thats mu logic at least... same thing with a gague directly at the end of the needle valve to tune it... if theres nowhere for the oil to escape to, it will just add up and completely fill the line at which poin the pressure will equal that of b4 the valve...

----, you guys have me over here playing with my sink and ----.
You may have a point. I haven't tried my new method yet, I just pulled it out of my head. (I hope I didn't just have sex with myself on a false premise.)
