Re: fernco

I used this instead. It works fine. Just have to trim it to fit.

Re: fernco

Ditto ^^ Some say it's too stiff, but after a while it assumes the correct bend.

uUse a microwave for about 30 seconds (clamps off) and a 3x3 will slip right on.

Re: fernco

do a search with the word "fernco" and you'll find all kinds of great info-its worth the time to read it. Especially the parts about trimming and breaking lids...

Yep, that looks like mine as well . . . 3.5x4" from Airflow Systems; and for $13 you can't beat the price!

Re: fernco

I think I used the 1059-33 series fernco coupler. It's a stepped coupler so it goes from 3inches to 3.5 inches. I just trimmed mine, no heating was required.

It's towards the bottom.

I guess if you were going from a 85mm MAF to the TB a 1060-33 might work good too since it's about a 3.5 internal diameter coupler.
