What are my options for fixing this chewed up drip irrigation setup?

Remove it for the new poly. That will stop the flooding for now. Hi Oren, Ah, that's a good idea (I already have the raw materials for that!). As for a more permanent fix, what do you think about me putting one of these 3/4" slip-to-MHT (male hose thread?) fittings directly onto the white-and-green part sticking out of the existing PVC elbow? http://www3.picturepush.com/photo/a/...g/13410696.jpg That seems to be a looser fit than a normal PVC pipe dry fit; but with lots of "glue", I think it might work. Is it possible to pry out that green endcap & just place the slip fitting over the remaining white part? (Or do I need to cut off the entire elbow and start again with the slip:slip coupling)? See my post on a drip line manifold (2). |
