Hi lg,

Not that would I would trust. I imagine the pipe above and below are running along with the middle line. If not, the job is even easier. Cut and reroute the top line just for the length that is at the Tee. Then cut out the tee and replace using slip couplings or compression coupling or even a compression Tee. You will probably have to dig back the hole to get some flex in the lines. Good idea not to have any dead end lines where stagnant water can harbor bacteria that may break loose later and spray all over your lawn just before that big party. Get rid of any unused branching line lengths. Another alternative would be to hammer a rubber or wood stopper in with alot of epoxy glue and then duck tape the hell out of it. Should work for a couple of years at least. JMHO Aloha

WEll, that's what I thought. I'll pass on the stopper idea and just rework the line. I can dig back enough to where they're not all stacked on top of each other and just make a right angle to reconnect up to the original line.

Easy jobs just can't turn out easy, can they?

lg,

Nope, just get er dun. Aloha
