You can carefully cut away the crimp ferrule and replace the hose. Just use a standard hose clamp after this. You MUST be careful not to cut into the hose barb that is under the old hose. > My second question is that I can't remember where the little > coil-looking thing on the generator attached to. Not sure what this might be. It doesn't sound like anything original. It MAY be a "hash filter" which is meant to keep electrical noise generated by the generator from getting to the radio. In this case, it would go in-line between the generator output (G+) and the large output wire to the voltage regulator. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
