Inner liner pulled loose after diffuser is moved
If the diffuser moved and pulled the liner loose, reopen the connection and redo it correctly.
Watch out
- Do not tape the jacket and leave the liner loose.
Check
- Check liner at diffuser/boot collar.
- Look for jacket hiding a loose liner.
- Re-seat and secure/seal liner.
- Support the connection so movement does not pull it again.
- Ask if boot needs repositioning.
