Well. I got the nut off. Kind of. I was attaching some vise grips to hold it in place so I could get after it with my channel locks on the inside. And it broke. Whoops? But now, how the heck do you get the hose off the fitting? It twists but won't pull off. I'm sure I just have to man up, but I'm hoping someone has a trick.
I see ya already tore into it. Haven't had a chance to bend the fan wrench yet but it should work. I plan to attempt mine in a couple weeks.@GMAN2015 if that works out for ya and makes life easy, let me know. Maybe we can work something out and I could borrow it...
any news yet on the scupper wrenches?? Do I really need them?
Why not channel locks? Just got my scupper valve. Looking forward to this project
I replaced mine. Used an old ford fan wrench, hammered the open end down to size. Then went after it with a torch and made 2 bends to clear the other water box and hose. Cut then end off to clear the water box support panel. Note the new scupper nut is a tad smaller dimension than the crappy plastic one. And yes the old scupper snapped off as soon as a little force was applied to remove the hose.I see ya already tore into it. Haven't had a chance to bend the fan wrench yet but it should work.
