Title: Intake Rubber?
Post by: Johnny4428 on October 27, 2020, 08:12:03 AM: I think this one morphed into something far harder than rubber. Had to take the hacksaw to this one to remove too hard for knife!

I think it's fair to say that's beyond this treatment...... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtRAar1Ilfs&ab_channel=SPANNERRASH (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtRAar1Ilfs&ab_channel=SPANNERRASH) - has anyone tried this method, although I believe Ash has an effective one?
