I am going to replace my co2 3m Regulator with a Smith 30-100 CO2 Regulator , I replace my solenoid with a Burkert 6011 1/8in port and would like to keep my old bubble counter and needle valve.
Hi ink!
That's a $100 medium duty single stage regulator. You can get a very nice two stage regulator for less than this. Smith 30-100:

What are you thinking? You are just throwing your money away. Unless something is bad with your 3M, you should keep it. You aren't going to be any better off with that Smith regulator.
Do you like the 3M needle valve? Why not replace it with an Ideal? (or a Swagelok or Parker metering valve) That's a good solenoid, BTY.

I need to find the parts number for a in-line brass check valve parts list from Clippard for my co2 hose .
Can do. You'll need the check valve plus the barbed fittings. The multi-barb fitting comes with the gasket and the single barb fitting doesn't. You'll have to order the gaskets separately if you get the single barb fitting.

Does your CO2 tubing have an 1/8" ID? If so, here are some choices of barbs for use with the MCV-1BB check valve.Note that you will need the gasket too.

Does any one know what size of a reducer will be needed for the Smith Regulator?
As far as I know, that regulator has a 1/4" NPT port.
1/4" male NPT x 1/8" female NPT - Clippard part: 4CQN
http://clippard.com/store/display_details.asp?sku=4CQN-BLK
You'll need a nipple with the above part. This is also listed below. So, get 2 if you use the Clippard 4CQN and the check valve combination below.

OR
You will not need an extra nipple if you use this reducing nipple.
