I guess that is what they are called. The two tubes at the stern
I cant remember which end is up. Are they directional? If which end goes to the top or bottom I left the hose on that goes to the pitots when I took it apart I thought I would be able to tell which end was up from that but cant. Any help? Thanks Mike ------------- Lakedog55 |

Kinda of realized it when I blew through either end, Sometimes it is harder to be smarter than the tool. Mike ------------- Lakedog55 |

I thought there was more to it than just a hollow tube too. Had to replace mine because it was split. Now the darn speedo has an internal leak so I guess I will be looking for a replacement. ------------- "working on these old boats may not be cost effective but as it shows its what it brings into your life that matters" -Roger http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=4897" rel="nofollow - 1973 Skier |

Don't give up yet Keegan.I think it was Pete who said you can take them apart and resolder them. ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1711&sort=&pagenum=1&yrstart=1966&yrend=1970" rel="nofollow - 69 Mustang HM SS 95 Nautique Super Sport |

For about a few dollars I bet a guy could make some out of pvc if they are just hollow tubes may take some dialing in but not impossible. I was going to get the motor back in this weekend but work calls an I get to go to New Jersey and New york instead ------------- Lakedog55 |
