I was wondering if any one has any experience with Parker type fitting for pitot/Static plumbing? This is the type that has a O-ring to help to create a good seal and you can see it here

I had used the barb type fitting and my IFR static test failed, so I am planning on replacing all of them but hoping to do it only once. The guy that tested my system didn't have a very positive experience with the "safe air" type fitting. He says they seal really good under pressure but not that well under vacuum (negative pressure) and he recommended the type with the O-ring
Of course nylo seal is what others have used but I am not sure how well they seals and under what method (I don't believe they have any O-rings, right?

Any info/experience would be greatly appreciated.
