Thanks to Tony B, I am ready with my motor, tubing and T connection. :):smt023 :smt023 There was a PetSmart store about 200  miles from me  and I had a friend pick up the necessary equipment so that when my new toy arrives I'll be all ready. :)

Bought the pump and tubing at PetSmart. I got this one, as it was the right flow rate recommended by Dennis.

Here's the tubing. I took the smoke gun piece with me so that I could make sure that it fit. It does. While it's silicon, I'm not sure about it's temperature rating. But for as cheap as it is, I'll give it a test run.

Since the pump is a dual output, I also picked up this t-connection. I have enough tubing to splice the 2 outputs together with this and ensure maximum air flow to the smoker.

All tolled, I'm out less than $30 US. YMMV

Best to buy an "adjustable" air pump.. this lets you control the volume of the airflow..  If you add a three way valve sop you can bleed off some of the pressure and reduce the flow.  BTW the outside diameter of the air pipe is   5 MM = 0.5 CM = 0.2 inches = 3/16".

Made some pulled pork nachos tonight using the leftovers from the weekend. This may be the tastiest thing I have cooked on the kk so far. Certainly the best tasting nachos I ever ate. Used costco tortilla chips, pulled pork, pickled jalapeños, mexican cheese blend and Monterey jack. topped off with freshly made pico de gallo (using smoked tomatoes) and sour creamIMG_2773.JPG

Thanks everyone. I'm noticing a trend on my cooks when I use the coffee charcoal. Not only does it have a wonderful aroma during the cook, it really imparts incredible flavor to the food. I don't want to run out of this stuff.

Baked a couple of loaves of sourdough this afternoon. Kooker is at temp.DSC_0070.JPG
 

I folded sun dried tomatoes into one loaf and added sliced fresh jalapeno in the other.

They were both very tasty.
