Where did you find the rain barrel stuff?
The only thing I saw at HD was the 3/4" version of the same stuff.
The perfect solution is convoluted tubing like you
use for protecting wiring. But without being slit.
Couldn't find any.

Cary I think it is hit or miss on Home Depot. It's all up to your local store. I must have gone to mine four or five times convinced I just wasn't looking in the right place. Finally bought that koi pond tubing, and it is vinyl, and thicker, but I find it easy to use and it works like a champ. The fact that it's stiffer provides more structure, IMHO.

I used the Home Depot garden tubing on both the fresh air box + the engine bay drain tubes. Works fine.

IIRC I bought a diverter online, but did not want to pay to have the barrel shipped. Ended up getting a barrel at Ace hardware that came with the same model diverter in the barrel.

You are right tho, I never have checked the ID. Right material, but I'll need to dry fit it to be sure.
