P1000 Vent Extension Question

[AmosMoses]

Hello all, new here with a 3 week old 1000-5 Deluxe. Have learned a ton on here and I have searched and cannot find an answer to this. I see all the threads on extending the vent tubes from differentials, fuel, etc.

Does anyone know if you can just put a connector on the existing vent tubes, add new tube from that point and then run them up? Rather than replace the entire tube? I realize it is one more thing to fail, but honestly its not mechanical so I am not all that worried. Just seems like an easier way to do it.

Any info? Downsides? Thx

Yes you can put a connecting barb on them...

Just buy one of the kits the guys are selling on here... you'll save yourself a lot of time and $!

Yes that's exactly what I did. JTW is right about that kit. I spent 60 bucks at auto parts store on hoses and connectors. Those kits are cheaper.

I did too... and still didn't have all the pieces I needed.
