hey guys, a hose is leaking coolant, its plugged into the firewall(right to the bottom left of the hose that has the mechanical box of somesort), and plugs into a hardline under the distributor cap.
anything to look out for when changing it out? should i even change the hose itself? it leaks where it connects to the firewall itself, not the hose. what to do? |

Look for a crack in the hose, if the hose is cracked replace it. I also suggest replacing that clamp with a screw type.
--------------------  I will return one day. |
