Hook up a compressed air tank to the tubing to blow out the tubing. Just
make sure ALL your instruments are disconnected beforehand!

The Pito in my Twin Astir is blocked.
The glider was stored for 6 monthes. Perfect befor - totaly blocked
after.
The blockage is between rear seat to the tail.
I'v tried to blow / suck as hard as can without any air movments.
It is imposible to insert a wire from the pito at the tail - probbaly a
90 degree connection inside.
Trying to push a 3/32 cable into the tube, it gets harder after 4 feet
because the vinyl tube is sticky and a lot of friction.

Any ideas?

Maybe a small animel crowled inside and died and now is swallen.
Should I send ants inside ? ;-
