I have watched people fidget with trying to get elastic hose through a hole for years but a neat trick can save you some time without drilling an oversize hole.

Let's assume that there is a 3/8 inch hole with 3/8 inch OD hose required to go through the hole. Slice the hose back in a long spear pointed shape. The pointed hose will easily start in the hole. Grab the protruding point on the hole exit with a pair of pliers to get a good grip and pull the hose on through.

You can even do this with an undersized hole such as the hole in the gas tank on a lawnmower or chainsaw.

Enjoy!

thanks for the advice

Gee, now you tell me after I hacked some gas line canyons in my serving fridge!

Sorry about that Your next one will be better!

don't take this out of context....

adding keg lube to your hose will allow it to slide into the hole easier as well.
