Re: [VAL] Oddball tubing size.
Blair,
Indeed there might be more small leaks. In fact I know of another
already in the 1/2" line. Someone had replaced a section of it with a
combination of PVC, green garden hose and a black pipe threaded coupling
with a bunch of hose clamps thrown in for good measure. That obviously is
on the repair list. As a matter of fact I bought the 1/2" copper tubing and
fittings yesterday for just that task. That's where I need to remove the
holding tank to gain complete access to the run.
The fun part of all this is that once I repaired the one spot, I found
the second. I wonder how long this will go on? At least my Caravel is in a
climate where nothing will freeze over the winter again.
Thanks, it's all great fun,
Glyn
