Story: In taking the tube housing's off of my old XG tubes, I've managed to crack the glass on two, and I'm pretty sure 2/3 HV Boots are wrecked as well. The good news on the HV boots is that I learned my mistake - some of the mineral spirits got on the boots and ate them up. As for the glass, I tried one tube first and soaked it in gas - it came off no problem after 2 days, but I think my problem is that I switched to mineral spirits for the second 2 and I guess 2 days wasn't enough to dissolve the silicone.

Question: I have a 6pg parts machine in the basement - are the housings and HV boots the same as those on the XG? I'd check myself, but it's currently buried...

Yes, you can use the PG stuff.

The length of the HV wires will be different, but that's not difficult to change.
