Now there's good advice! Go to the auto parts store, ask the busy parts
counter guy to paw through every hose in the place, find one kinda-semi
like the one you have, take it home and try it. You may have to go back
a couple of times, but I'm sure the parts guy will love seeing you come
in. Then you may get one similar, may have to kink it around corners,
but, hey, there IS the possiblilty that it won't overheat! OR, you can
get the correct hose for the application.


I realize the autoparts store in your area dislikes you. But even Kragens /
Shucks here will let you peruse there supply of hoses. Take the hose with
you and match it to the ones on the wall.

Hmm, guess JimH didn't wipe good this morning, so you decided to follow
CalifBill around with your nose stuck up HIS ass?? What have you ever
posted here boating related?

Really? Do tell the group how you know this to be fact.

Hmm, let's see, thousands of applications, and they aren't on the wall.
They are behind the counter, behind the wall, where parts stores have
their parts. AND, you said HAVE THEM match one. Also, molded hoses have
molded ends. You can't just go hacking it off where you want. Now, I
ask, why not buy the hose intended for the application?

Why do you insist on turning even the most basic discussions (in this case,
about a damn water hose) into arguments? Let it go already Kevin. Life
goes on.

Because it's idiotic for CalifBill to suggest that someone cobble
together something together instead of finding the correct application.
AND, it could save someone's life. Would you feel better about it if
that person took Bill's advice and had a failure out in the middle of a
big body of water, and a storm fast approaching?

That's EXACTLY what you should be saying to Bill. Odd, that you don't.

OK, if you insist:

Bill, I told Kevin that this ain't rocket science and he needs to drop it
already.
