newstang 388 Report post Posted March 21, 2019 I dont know why none of the hoses come without a spring in the hose anymore. the rubber is no stronger and probably softer than before, so i doubt technology will be there for us when it collapses and overheats. So in case you cant find one ( like me) here is how i made mine in 2 min. 3/32 stainless steel tig wire 1" black pipe and vise grips/ Problem solved!

TexasEd 188 Report post Posted March 22, 2019 Looks great. I think the hose I bought last year came with a spring but that is a good solution. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
