Howdy all,

First time trying to post pictures--hope it goes well.

Anyhow, I've been doing a little plumbing work around the old homestead. Moving a sink a few feet further down a wall I ended up using something that is just PERFECT for relocating the flame trap on a B21/23/230. It's a straight 1/2" barb fitting from the plumbing section. Stick one end into the hose that comes up from the breather box, then take another one of those same s-shaped hoses and attach it to the other side of the fitting. Your flame trap is now comfortably situated above the manifold. The fittings cost less than a dollar each.





Best,
Afton
