[DMCForum] Re: RAD hoses (Long Hoses In Lieu Of Pipe Sections)

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've already replaced 4 of my pipe sections with ~3 foot hose lengths.
My cooling system is now configured: standard hoses in engine
compartment, pipe sections for otterstat and expansion tank barb, long
hoses to pipes along frame, silly little hoses joing those pipes to
pipes under the gas tank (one of these days I'd like to madrel bend 2
stainless pipes to replace those 4), long hoses to/from the radiator.
My radiator air bleed is rerouted to a Tee in the heater core return
line (UPHILL, so I never have any problem with air trapped in the
radiator). Is a much neater installation than what left the factory.
Is also easier to maneuver around for maintenance under the car.
