I asked the guy at the local car parts store and he said they put threaded ends on high pressure hose (hydraulic also) all the time. He doesn't see why it wont work for a section like the one I have a hole in. Could I just re wrap the heater coil around the newly fixed section of threaded metal? It would only be about 5 inches or so. Thank you for your Time Biddeford
