Hi<br>
Bob,I had exactly the same problems. As others<br>
<div><div class="h5"> have said, forget the honing tool. I used the<br>
appropriate sized hand reamer. (A normal one, not an<br>
adjustable which are a bit of a pain to use). I ran the<br>
reamer through and then I used a bar with a slot cut in it<br>
and a piece of very fine emery paper (wet) through the slot<br>
to take off the smallest amounts until the fitting went<br>
through. Worked fine. Have a<br>
picture here. <a href="http://www.guernseysubmarine.com/Extended_files/Page23356.htmHope" target="_blank">http://www.guernseysubmarine.com/Extended_files/Page23356.htmHope</a><br>
this helps, Good luckJames <br>
