Re: [Digital BW] Cleaning Nomorecarts CIS tubes

2002-07-10 by sm7bxd

Hallo,

when I had it "the devils clog of tubes" - I pressed the tube between 
my forefinger and thumb and pulled the tubes several times, all 
along, untill all "old motor grease" was gone.
 
Then I just forced water through the tube, until it was clean!

Rubber gloves - recomended -indeed! Dip the thumb and forefinger in 
some of your wifes "body-grease" or somthing she uses to make the 
scin extrasoft for you! (*Please* before you do the trick <smile>...)


It's not that fun to stay in the same room as the ammonia!
And it's not that fun having a wife looking like a zebra - with
MIS double-black-4K all over - but ok, if you switch of the light!

Fiat Lux!
Bo Wrangborg
