Default Jabsco Head - help!

Hi,

Just getting my new holding tank in, and have discovered that the
reason the discharge hose was leaking at the head was that the outlet
fitting is too small. The hose fits over it easily instead of barely
squeezing on - seems like it's for maybe 1 3/8" ID hose or something (my
hose is 1 1/2" ID).

I remember the problem: I replaced the old head (Cheap Wilcox?) with
a cheap manual Jabsco (I know, but it seems to work fine, and I like being
able to flush without a battery), but the 45 deg outlet wouldn't work with
my plumbing. I used the outlet off the old head, which fit the head fine,
but doesn't seem to fit the hose.

Any ideas? can I get a 90-deg outlet for the Jabsco? Some kind of
adapter? Peggy? (got your book - Good Stuff!)
