Is this what I need for Wing tubes?

http://www.nrs.com/product/14821/c7-...-valve-adapter

I just bought the same electric pump as Jason, but don't want to hold the hose while inflating my tubes.
I don't know what kind of intake valves I have.
Are they C7 Leafield?

how about a picture of your valves? Or maybe tom will come along and say what you have.

6 red valves and 1 yellow valve.... The yellow valve is a slightly smaller diameter than the reds. I always had to hold the pump to that one (starboard, aft)

So this would be the right fill adapter?

New Short H-R Fill Adapter at nrs.com

What and why the different colors?

I assume that adapter will either cover 6 of 7 or only 1 of 7.

I don't know if yellow or red is "old" or "new". All I know is the lone yellow one is slightly smaller than the 6 red ones (in diameter). Those tubes came from the Navy like that.

Thanks.

It appears the red valves are the old ones, and the yellow are the new ones.
I ordered a couple of adapters and caps for both.
