    Some of the vac tank manufacturers should have it in stock, 2in is a bit small though, it will block easily unless you are going to use it for clean water.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    Got a good length of hose from the man delivering the diesel here foc. Apparently if damage/wear is spotted on any part of the hose all of it is replaced. The rest of it is usually in good condition. Might not be 2” but 1.5” anyway.

    You need to be careful pumping with it. Easy enough to damage vac pump. Blew 2 sets of vanes here last summer using it to try to clear the back of a long narrow slatted tank. Pressure builds and release valve can't let enough pressure of. Even on tick over engine revs.

    I have 10m of 4 inch, if I'm dumping a load I just put the pump in neutral and let it empty by gravity, thanks didn't know it can wreck the vanes.
