    So the parts of the oring I got out of the brass push to connect paccar part coming off the air compressor on x15 look blueish black about 3/8" OD. Are these just standard orings or they different to work with the push to connect? If different where do I get them and do you guys usually have an airline kit you get from some where?

    Looks like you’re dealing with the push-to-connect fittings on a Paccar system. Those blueish-black O-rings might be specialized for high heat or specific chemical resistance. Standard O-rings might not cut it if they’re not rated for those conditions. I'd check Paccar or the compressor manufacturer for exact specs. Also, as for airline kits, I usually grab mine from NAPA or FleetPride—they’ve got decent universal kits that include O-rings and fittings.

    Yeah, I’ve seen those same o ring kit on Northern Hydraulics setups before. They’re usually high-temp silicone or a special nitrile blend. Standard O-rings won’t hold up - trust me, tried it once, ended up with a leak three days later. I’d say hit up their dealer.
