I picked up Yong Heng(?) type pump at a tag sale, cheap. It doesn’t have any of the cooling system parts, and it seems to be a probable clone. The cooling water connects are a slip in fitting for some softer rubber type hose. Anyone seen this and have a source for the hose? I figure I will get some type pond pump for the pump replacement but haven’t found more than 2 inches of the soft white hose that fits the connectors. The connections work by pushing in hose and slipping a collar back to release the hose. The Ali sight has been frustrating to search for the hose.

Yong Heng compressors don't have any type of slip fit collar just push the hose on a barbed fitting and that's it. You have to sign in to aliexpress before the search function werqs
Some vinyl hose may werq for you if you can find the right size. Most hardware stores would carry a few different diameters of it.

Home Depot in the plumbing section for the hose very cheap, Walmart use an aquarium pump last one I bought there was $8.

This is what he is talking about, mine has the same. I replaced my water pump because it stopped working. I am having a flow issue. Water has full stream on the delivery side but has very little outflow/ Is anyone else experiencing this?

Also can you add a auto shutoff gauge to a unit that is not fitted with one? If so is the gauge all that is needed?

I don't see why not but you would likely need the relay, the gauge and some rewiring skills to do so.
Personally although I have two of the "Set Pressure" units I seldom use the feature as I blow far less burst discs when I release the pressure before shutting down. Some others do not have this problem from what I have read. I use the shut off as a safety feature. I set the pressure a bit above where I want to stop so if I space out I will not damage my compressor or over pressurize my tank.

Which is your inlet and which is your outlet? I would think that the push in connector is smaller diameter and might cause a flow restriction. I have always had mine inlet on bottom and outlet on top and I use the push on stock elbow as you have in the upper position. Never any problems with adequate water flow using that setup and stock pump.

Mine has that connection, both are that push in style. What is the ID and OD of that tubing, if you could measure it for me. There seems to be disagreement on what thread the fittings are so I decided to just go with finding tubing vs threaded barb type fittings.

my booklet puts the top as the inlet and the bottom is the outlet, which makes since. The hose is a surgical
rubber type. Here are pictures of the O.D and I.D.

The bottom fitting should be the in and the top out, this will allow all the air to be removed from the cooling jacket as the air will always rise to the top.
