Subject: More "Cold Air" , the topic continues IP: Logged
Message: This may seem redundent, but I have searched for a few weeks, and still havn't decided. "Nitrous Steves" seems to be a good set up, but I was wondering if anyone has experimented with plastic elctrical conduit (grey) as opposed to ABS, or metal. I have a 2002 4.7, with only the pcv line to attach somehow, but it shouldn't be a big deal. Any comments? Thanks

Message: The A.B.S. has a higher melting temp , than the gray P.V.C. I work for an electrical contractor , and sometimes we (not to code hehe) we will heat up the p.v.c in the tail pipe of the vans in order to bend it.

Message: Electrical contractors use heaters made for the conduit to make bends. In commercial constuction they are used to bend up to 6" conduit. I would not use it under the hood.

Message: kennungesser, I thought you were smarter then that ,,, Heating up a plastic that gives off mustard or what is now known as chlorine gas and so very close to a major CO2 sourch, if one gas don't get ya the other one will.

Message: We heat up the P.V.C just enough to soften it up , lol. We don't let it burn!!! It does not even smoke. I'm only talkin sizes up to 1 inch. And when you have to get the job done , and the nearest P.V.C HotBox is two counties away , it works well enough for something that is gonna get buried anyway.
Anyway , what the heck led you to belive I was smart? lol.

Message: Well I guess I should be dead..........
After 20+ years in the plumbing and mechanical business we have heated PVC pipe for bending, cutting and all kinds of jack leg things to make something work. I have been around burning and melting PVC (only a little at a time) and have not seen any ill effects on anyone. Where did this Mustard Gas talk come from...?
