    Classic Fox problem. Fish around back there. You'll find a black, hard plastic line. There's no clamp or anything and over time, the rubber hose splits. You may have luck cutting off a bit of the end of that hose and fitting it on. Then use a zip tie or something to keep ii secure.

    thanks ziddey, you always seem to have something valid to contribute to fellow foxers.
