Default Winter quick disconnect color code


I've has Winter five tube quick disconnects in my Ka-6E, HP-16T and currently in my HP-14. Mine were purchased from Tim Mara (http://www.wingsandwheels.com/page24.htm) So far I haven't had any problems.

I replaced my aging tubing a while ago with colored tubing and
individual quick disconnects. In a DG-xxx it makes removing/replacing
the instrument panel mighty easy (and I take it home each winter to
play glider pilot and futz with it). I have no idea what color code I
used, probably my own totally random one - but Craggy's is as good as
any, Is there a logic to the colors?

As to the quick disconnects, I have had no known problems. The ones
that I use are from the medical industry so I am not too worried about
leakage. There is a ready nice 5-by quick disconnect (http://cumulus-
soaring.com/winter.htm#W-9005) which I have coveted but never bought.
Anyone have experience with that?
