I used the SafeAir system - found some leaks during the IFR check. That suggestion of using grease is probably a good idea.

SafeAir system with 460 hours to date. I have been through two IFR pitot static cert tests with no leaks. I seem to remember SafeAir recommending a very good tubing cutter to insure a smooth cut. Important for avoiding leaks, IIRC.

Used Vans stock system, with some replacement parts off A/S, I forget which type. Worked perfect, no leaks (other than the built in one on the pitot tube I forgot about for a couple days )
