Converting air quick connects for propane use

From Discord

Did some more digging on propane seals
Neoprene is OK for static propane use aka not on a car/truck etc
McMaster has seals which works on at least some of these connectors. Measure prior to ordering. https://www.mcmaster.com/neoprene-rubber-washers
Choose from our selection of neoprene rubber washers in a wide range of styles and sizes. In stock and ready to ship.
Part No 90133A036 is said to fit some quick connects
pack of 100 for $12.43
There are better materials for use with propane but I have not searched for them

FWIW I have been switching over to Milton high flow airline fittings https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001O2ZGQ6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 So MAYBE (have not checked to see if McMaster has washer that fit) $12 for the couplers and $12 for the washers (ignoring shipping) and you have 2 propane quick connects that should last a life time.
