LUXOR HOOKAHS Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 You are missing the rubber gromet that goes between the bowl and stem.You can find them at most hookah sites.In a pinch you can use wet strips of paper towels wrapped around the stem (old school method).Hope this helps.LUXOR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billy Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 Could he use anything that has some good grip with rubber? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billy Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 Also, he wants a new hose...would this (http://mnhookahs.com/product_info.php?cPath=28_32&products_id=65) fit his hookah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billy Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 Hmm, i'll let him know about the wet paper towel, what about the hose?http://mnhookahs.com/product_info.php?cPat...;products_id=65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUXOR HOOKAHS Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Yes, that hose looks like a MYA which is a great hose.By the way, there is also a gromet that goes between the hose and the fitting on the hookah.When you order the hose ask about getting a set of grommets for the hookah, I'm sure that the site will have them.

billy Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 Grommets for the base / stem or for the bowl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUXOR HOOKAHS Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 They will have all 3 that you need.1 base to stem2 bowl to stem3 hose to stem fitting.If any of these is missing, you will have air leaks and not be able to get much smoke out of you hookah.Side note - you can use wet paper towels as a temporary fix for all 3 scenarios above.

jordanneff Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Unfortunately I couldn't find any grommets on mnhookah, I was going to suggest getting them from the same site but here's what the grommets look like thishttp://www.hookah -shisha.com/store/pc/configurePrd.asp?idcategory=33&idproduct=1063They're cheap, like $2Edit: take the space out of the web address, for some reason someone on these forums has a stick up their ass again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The King Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Well they were bought at a local shop called freakys, sells alot of pipes and like 5 hookahs...probably not top notch quality, but it seems sturdy, and it smokes good. like of course theres gromets on hoses and in between base and stem, bot not one for the bowl to sit on.
