Re: [A/S] Water Pump

We always used a short piece of white water hose. It works great.

The fittings they used are the good stuff. They will also work on water
hose as part of the fix. Just cut out about 6" of the hard line, add a
double straight fitting and cut a piece of hose to fit. Repeat for the
other side.
