Secondary Accelerating Well Tubes Loose
« on: July 15, 2013, 12:43:02 PM »
Is there a good way to ensure the tubes stay in place?  They fells out during disassembly.  Thanks.

 Might try using a brass hammer and gently tap them back in.

Okay, I've seen a video where they used JB Weld to hold them in, but that seems like the weld material would just fall off after heating and cooling many times.
