Default Bladder Problems!!!

Now that I've got your attention...I pulled the bottom of my 91 sport seats because the bladders haven't been working. The problem is the lines which run into a plastic coupler have snapped off. Anyone have experience with this? Can I bypass this coupler,or can a new one be purchased

The coupler can be bypassed. I looked for a coupler for a long time with no luck.

If it's an in line coupler (1in & 1out) you could use a vacuum line coupler from AutoZone.

For a 1in to 3out, you might try an aquarium supply house.

Also JB Quick Weld is great for joining plastic pieces.
