 Opps! make that "Everyone but Steve"
Sorry Bucky,unless this is a 1.7-2.0 aircooled (where the tubes are "O"ringed
and come out through the head) you are SOL (Slightly Out of Luck) .
I've had to use the waterboxer collapsing tubes and they DON'T leak..when you
try to use the BUG style ones, as the correct ones are $20 and the bug ones
are $3.00, THEN you get leaks...
