image Nycoil later updated the elbow to feature a flanged red insert. The brass body remained the same. Nycoil still offers the banjo elbow today, only it is now about a 1/4'' shorter, is nickel plated and still features a flanged red insert. Nycoil banjo elbows are also found on the Ghost Trap Pedal in Ghostbusters 2.TubingThe actual tubing used on the pack is a contenteous issue as are the sizes and lengths used. Here is a basic guideline: 5/32" Red tubing - 4 ft needed
Installed from the elbow fittings on the HGA and Cyclotron to the straight fittings below the PPD (Note: some use 1/4" tubing here), also used between the two banjo fittings on the gun tip. 1/4" Blue tubing - 2 ft needed Installed from the injector tube to cyclotron, from the PPD to the base of the Dale RH-50 and from the top of the RH-50 to the brass elbow fitting 1/4" Red tubing- 3 ft needed
Installed on the injector to the cyclotron and the beam line to the brass elbow on the HGA 1/4" Green tubing -1 ft needed Installed on the gun from the brass barb on the rear instrument bar to the brass barb on the rear cylinder 5/32" yellow -1 ft needed Installed on the Sage resistor on the Ion arm to the Legris elbow on the underside of the Ion arm (Note: some use 1/4" tubing here)Split loomThere is also split loom or corrugated tubing ( shielding) used on the pack. A 1/4" ID split loom is used to cover the red tubing from the beam line to the brass elbow on the HGA (approx. 2 ft.) This 1/4" loom can also be used for the small boots on the injectors and on the resistors. There is also 3/4" split loom connecting the gun to the pack ( approx. 5 ft.) this can also be found without the split. Some form of sleeve inside the loom may be needed to give the loom some form. Electronics wiring from the pack to the gun can be chanelled through here as well. The loom can generally be found at automotive suppliers or online sources.
