cruzmisl Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 Hi All, As I posted before I was expecting to punch the hole out of my OTB, insert my BBQ Guru fan and prepare for a low and slow. Much to my dismay it didn't work like that. The hole is too big and you will need an inducer tube from BBQG. Based on their advice I elected to go with the bulkhead inducer tube. It's a bit longer but also more stable. Simply remove the nut and shove it into the KK until it bottoms out on the snap ring. I didn't bother putting the nut on the inside since the fit is really tight. Just jiggle it back and forth and it will go in. Hopefully this will save someone else some minor aggravation. Dennis does state on the KK Website that it is BBQ Guru inducer tube ready but I didn't read that part. Come to think of it, I didn't even know what and "inducer tube" was Here are some pics. Don't mind the residual adhesive on my KK. I had to plug the hole with painters tape while I waited for my bulkhead Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidS Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 Well done. I did mine a little different. I brought the inducer-tube and used silicone sealant to hold is solid. I put the sealant on the tube and fed thru from the inside of the KK and stopped at the length I wanted sticking out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fetzervalve Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Is the competitor weatherproof, or will I need to take precautions? It looks a little susceptible to rain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreeDJ16 Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 For waterproofing, I use a large ziplock bag - fits perfect on mine! -=Jasen=- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curly Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 I'm sure DJ has already welded up some type of an umbrello for that dude...it's back there behind the old Delorian he made . Maybe he'll make you one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
