    Should I use the cone or not.....

    I am going to install a Solas 14/19 on my RXP this spring.
    Should I use the green Solas cone or should I stick with the stock one.

    Thanks,
    Rob

    The Green one is fine, is you wire brush the threads, and use red locktite. The green cone usually dosent go in very well the first time. check yours.
