no probs
I was thinking of the little rubber teat (for want of a better word) on the bottom of the heater box.

Hi 73BATHXU1HTBATH350 do they leak down the centre shaft though?? as they may look good but connect hose end to some air and put in water they usualy leak and you will see bubbles through the centre shaft i have tried so many that look good only to find this so unless you have had the heater tap connected and working there is a 98% chance it will leak down the centre shaft i have my heater tap on my hk monaro dummied up to look like it works but our trip to warwick qld this year for the monaro nationals i thought i would get it working properly for the kids well what a headache its turning out to be
