All van put back togeather today,     i found  leaks mainly on jubillee clip  connections, around  tank tap to pump.    the hose with O rings on = no leaks,     Back off and placed O rings on where jubilee clips were.

Then after refitting my PureFreedom Tank tap screwing it into WaterTank thread i noticed a tiny drip from the plastic blue fitting  you screw in to use a  hosepipe hoselock pushfit.     Need to screw back out and put Xtra ptf tape around it,    

Is there any brass or steel ones around as the plastic fittings can loose shape when using a spanner.

This is the blue   connection which seems to be my only leak so far
