Dogsbody47uk Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Not sure but I think you need something that you can insert into the end of the tube and screw to grip the inside and then pull it out. A tapered spring with a sharp point perhaps? This is not a lot of help but might nudge a few minds for ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basil Fawlty Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Get a medium sized safety pin Open it and attach it to a piece of light stick or dowel Bind it on with light gauge wire and duck tape with the open point backwards like a fishing hook barb (really secure you don't want it in the tank as well!)Insert it carefully into the pipe end and the barb should snag the inside of the pipeYou may need a second stick to act like chop sticksHope it worksBaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timireson Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Update: this wax a pain in the arse to say the least!!!!Tried many things even managed to kebab and thread a piece of string through the hole-this was fun. Pull it broke the pipe!!! Talk about wedgedFinal brain wave. Heat with hot air gun till pipe went floppy (o eerr mrs), rekebabed and managed to flick it out. Only 3 bleeding knuckles.Now sealed internally, the por stuff is good, but need to follow directions well!! Plus don't let it spill on ur drive it doesn't go and looks like vomit!!! And I have 3 patches, and let's say the lady of the house is not impressed. Thought the update may help someone in the future. Another job off the list!!!Tim.
