Having just replaced 2 SCAT tubes in my engine compartment, I was wondering if anyone had a trick to installing that stuff? For the life of me, I cannot understand why the tube is made so tight to the receiver. It is just about impossible to get it slipped on far enough for a clamp. Suggestions?

HI CUBES;

TRY USING A SILLICONE SPRAY ON THE INSIDE. ITS AUCTUALLY A DRY COATING AND WON'T SLIP OFF AFTER YOU TIGHTEN YOUR CLAMP.
