Yeah, you wanna keep that pill unless you have a boost controller. just cut it out of the old hose and take a phillips head screwdriver and push it in the new hose 3 1/2 to 4 inches down and you are done.
thanx, ryan

Just to be safe, after you get the pill into the new silicone line throw a tie wrap around it to make sure it doens't move around and no pressure can leak around it.
