Hooker 5204 Problem
I used to think that denting tubes hurt power. But a couple years ago, I saw a test somewhere that showed it doesn't hurt. I don't remember where I saw that.
It's done now. I had to take it out 4 times to whack it, to be sure it was damaged enough. lol I used a 48 ounce "Ford Tool". Yes, Kursplat, I got my exercise today.
MM1974, you're right, the one tube was pretty bad.
There's no "after" pictures, I want to forget this as soon as possible!
It's a shame, they fit well otherwise.
Thanks fer the help!
