Use liquid disk soap to lure both the barb and inside of the hose, heat first as suggested. I find it easier to remove the barb from the head to get the hose on on the Jabsco toilets.

I replaced the hose from my Jabsco twist n Lock to the holding tank. It is 1 1/2" Shields hose (top quality) and the outlet is 1 1/2" but after clamping it up tight, I get drips at the head connection. It is uphill to the holding tank so I need to prevent drips. What gunk do you recommend to put around the head outlet to seal the connection as I clamp it back down. I don't want to use an adhesive sealer as I may have to remove the hose sometime in the future to maintain the joker valve etc. -- Ian Matthew "Siento el Viento" C&C 29-1 San Francisco Bay
