TH425 Vent

[gene]

John Bush out here just put in his vent using the hoses on my web page.
He was not able to attach to the short piece of tube either so he tapered a
peice of copper tube and tapped it into the case.

[al chernoff]

Fred. Best told by Winterfeld, he changes the vent and puts in a new plumbing
that moves the discharge away from any fire source. Tomorrow I will take a
couple of pictures and get them to gene to put on his site. Then all can see
what was done. Darel did all that when he put in the new tranny, so he had
everything out when he did it.
