Karcher foam adapter leaking

[AS_BO]

Pictured as so. It’s leaking everywhere, already had my lance to bits but no joy.



I’ve searched on eBay but can’t seem to find one with the thread (1/4” I think) to fit it to the brass body of the lance.

Can anyone link me up?

Thanks

It is leaking from the gun and the connection, not the brass fitting. So it spurts out of the bayonet fitting in the gun. It’s got PTFE on the threads, I re did it when I had it to bits. Apparently there is an internal seal between the plastic bayonet and the thread that inserts into the brass body that is knackered but I can’t separate it

Aah, that’s no good then, hope you manage to sort one : thumb:

I had a similar problem wit hthe connector leaking at the lance, and replacing the Karcher's o-ring fixed the leak for me.

The o-ring sits under the plastic retainer (yellow 'plugs')
When I bought then they were only ~£3, may be worth shopping around now.

Spot on that, I’ll get a look at my lance when I get home and see what’s what
