Hey everyone, I thought I'd post a repair I did on this air pump, not sure if there available in the states but they're widely known and available in the uk and have a common fault. The plastic feed nozzles always break off after prolonged use rendering the pump useless, now this is a very simple repair and only needs a few basic tools to complete :
A Drill (cordless combi works best)
A 4•5 HSS drill bit
2 air flow regulators
Carefully drill out the centre of both nozzles to a depth of about 5mm and clean off built up plastic
Then simple insert the regulators until snug (no glue needed)
and it's job done, the Beauty of this is if you only need one line you can close the other off
Hope someone finds this useful as I'm sure it will apply to other pumps as well.
