Question

Right....decided to tackle and fill botang's hole. Which was a lot less difficult than everyone has lead me to believe, but that clearly isn't the problem.

Got some Mr Muscle in my grocery delivery which I will try on the main scuttle drain tomorrow. Failing that I'll get some bent brake pipe and hose.

Sucked as much water out of scuttle and carpets as I can with the VAX.

But....question? If I knock up a small enough fitting, can I shove a pipe through the front and rear vents inside the car and try and suck out the remaining water with the VAX? Or am I going to damage something in there? Some major sloshing still going on. Or, if I disconnect and clear the orange drains running through the cabin either side of the transmission tunnel, will everything drain out on its own? I suspect I know the answer

Thanks,
Mark
