newjacksm Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Any one know how to get rid of it? When I first got my KM in the air flow was so bad on my KM hose I still smoked out of it (some times) I didnt really care. Today I decided to say screw this and investigate I heard the plastic peanut in there and i blew as hard as i could where it was closest too. The peanut is now not blocking anything, but its still in there. Any tips on how to get the sucker out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modisess Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 try placing the hose parallel to a table or anything (just let extend really straight) and shoot pressured air into the hose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjelder Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 go to the gas station and use the hose that fills up your tires, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newjacksm Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 I actually have an air compressor at the hose never thought of that. Hope this works... ha. No wonder I thought my KM hose was sucking so badly.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modisess Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 (edited) oh yeah, you should blow air into the hose end which is farthest from the peanut..P.S. Wow, if I posted this somewhere other than here.. that would be so random.. Edited September 25, 2008 by modisess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Veritas* Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 try using a long piece of stiff wire or something similar to push it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newjacksm Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 (edited) Found out what the problem is. It wasnt a peanut. The KM hose it self was made really bad. I decided to break the hose apart and get it out my self and attach later it because blowing air out wasn't working. a Piece of plastic was wrapped around the hose end and had a little hole on it. When I would blow into it. the hole would get bigger and bigger. When I would suck in the hole got smaller and restricted air. There is still more plastic surrounding the tube. I am probably going to make a home made hose of this one guys, pretty disappointing.There is a lot more plastic in the tubing that is also screwing it up too near the end, a lot more that is needed.
