Re: HELP! waterleak nonturbo RS

Re: HELP! waterleak nonturbo RS
is the hose broken at where it meets (where the hose clamp goes?) if so you can trim it a lil and put it back on....

Re: HELP! waterleak nonturbo RS
update...thanks but it wasnt long enough to trim and still be able to put on...i bought 3ft of replacement hose...but i cant get the damn end off that plugs into the firewall...the clamp is a pinch clamp and really hard to get to to....i dont have the finger strength to unclamp it so im still tryin to figure out what im gonna do

Re: HELP! waterleak nonturbo RS
well the clamp is hard to reach the hose goes into the firewall(heatercore hose) and its the bottom of the 2 hoses...also its pretty hard to reach as its behind and below the throttle body. and under the top hose....so i cant fit any pliers down in there

Re: HELP! waterleak nonturbo RS
ok well it took a whole lot of time and patience...but i got some vise grips in there with my hand and somehow managed to loosen the clamp and leave the grips on...so i tugged hard and pulled the tub off.. being retarded and trying to use regular tubing was a pain to get it just the right length for no bends and kinks but i think its going good now...so 3 days of bitchin and fussin...but i got the fuckin thing done....all bymyself wooofuckinghooo! lol total cost 7$ with like 5 extra feet of the wrong size tube included..lol peace
