I just wanted to conclude this thread with the completed project. As shown in my earlier posts, the leak was from a hole in the metal riser...
Here are some dry fit examples using a 4 elbow swing joint. I could adjust by using different nipple lengths. With the riser at about the correct...
Makes sense if it's going into the sides of the meter. In my case, I'd be swinging up to meet a union (see the picture above). If I elbow off the...
