Hi frank<div>I have done something like that for my prop shaft seal oil filled compartment. But first i removed the hose and filled with a serynge with long steel needle. Then put the tube and filled it with the serynge. </div><div>The tube is flexible and transparent, from endurance sport platypus drinking bladder<br>Works well</div><div>Regards </div><div>Antoine <br>On Monday, December 5, 2016, James Frankland via Personal_Submersibles <<a href="mailto:personal_submersibles@psubs.org">personal_submersibles@psubs.org</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hi All</div><div> </div><div>I have been talking to Rick about motor compensation which has got me thinking.</div><div> </div><div>I originally did my motors like other psubbers have done with the rubber tubes around the sides, but have found them a real pain to fill.

Blocking off the existing side mounted pipe nipples and filling\venting\compensating all from the one top hole. There would be a rubber bulb of some sort on the end of the pipe. 2x pictures show filling and operation.
