Re: RAdiator Tube

Old pipes expand. It's week. You better reaplce that beofere it breaks. Goto Autozone. Less than $10 for a new pipe. Drain alittle coolenant, and install hose.

Re: RAdiator Tube

Re: RAdiator Tube

If you put the picture back, make it smaller.

Get a new radiator hose. You just told us that yours is about to explode.

Re: Re: RAdiator Tube

I'm really sorry about the pic you guys...I got my laptop today so i will do that tonight.. thanks for the help.

p.s. I guess I assumed it wouldn't explode...because everything is dostributed 100% throughout the hose and for it to explode would take a LOT of pressure...but I guess I'll get another one, I just didn't know if it was normal to become that pressurised

Re: Re: RAdiator Tube

You stay up late lol. Um, yea but it's in CA. 90% of the time, when I order something from CA...I don't get it. But I think I'll just get a normal one from autozone...although it'd be nice to find a colored one...
