Here is what I did to make the connection with the white hose to the holding tank. Boil some water and stick the end of the hose into the boiling water - leave it in the water for a minute then take your finger with a litle dish soap on it - coat the inside of the hose with the dish soap - slip it on. You will be surprised how easy it is. If you can't take the hose to stick in the pot - take the hot water... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (ajchan) http://catalina42discussionforum.yuku.com/sreply/7111 Thu, 10 Apr 2008 14:28:16 GMT http://catalina42discussionforum.yuku.com/reply/7108/t/Fitting-holding-tank-hoses-over-the-barb.html#reply-7108

It looks like more heat and a bit of lube when I go back at it this weekend. I hadn't thought of cable lube, but that might be what the doctor ordered, although I'll try Lanocote first because I already have some.

I knew getting the new hose on was going to be tough because I quite literally had to cut the old one off, by nipping through the reinforcing wire, one wire at a time.

Not a fun job, but it was doable.

I don't know if it will help you but I have used LanoCote on my hoses for years with no ill, and much good, effect.

I would apply it liberally on both hose and nipple, warm the hose (not the nipple, which I might rub with ice just before I try to put the hose on) and give it a try. I have found that it will ease installation and removal, even on hoses such as exhaust, which can stick to the metal. I also used it on all nuts and bolts of my deck hardware,... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (lakandjc) http://catalina42discussionforum.yuku.com/sreply/7091 Sun, 06 Apr 2008 16:21:55 GMT http://catalina42discussionforum.yuku.com/topic/1963/t/Fitting-holding-tank-hoses-over-the-barb.html
I am trying to replace the head discharge hoses with the white dometic sanitation hose. The stuff is stiff as board and a royal pain in the butt to manoeuver. After much pushing and twisting, the admiral and I managed to run the hoses through all of the twists and turns. For the life of me however, I cannot get the end of the hose over the barb on the holding tank.

The barb is about 3.5 inches long and smooth, but I cannot get much more than 2.5 inches of hose onto... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (ajchan) http://catalina42discussionforum.yuku.com/topic/1963 Sun, 06 Apr 2008 14:50:31 GMT
