Default Since us government types have the day off tomorrow.......

I'm gonna finish up my FMIC connections and then tackle my DV relocation.

What works well for cutting the stock hose for the DV relo? Sawzall? Rotozip? Teeth? What?

Default To cut the stock hose for the dv relo >>>

I used a hacksaw and a 1" boring bit by hand to make a nice hole.

Teeth may work but it probably tastes nasty.

Have fun while the rest of us bastages work

Default Cut the hole first. Then use a hose clamp around the hose and use a utility knife to cut along the

clamp to cut the hose in half - aim for the middle of the hole ; )

Default Great to have the day off, but sucks that I have to go to court in the morning.

I'm not a big fan of Newark, DE let me just say that.

After cutting the hose, I used the knife to cut for the tee. Worked fine.
