I love it! Might customise mine just like that. Have to change my username to DustyBlack :D

You can do as Martin suggests, I know he likes to have a jiggle about with his short length of hose :rofl

or even easier fit something like this:

When I have finished flushing I just tip bin over & water comes out albeit onto the drive & then onto next doors drive but I've saved £1.85.

When I bought a little 3.5hp mariner, the guy told me that the manual says not to run the engine if you use the screw on hose fitting method, but he couldn't understand how the thermostat would let the water up around the head if it wasn't running, so I always just stuck it in a wheelie bin full of water, slept better at night !
