Do any of you put anything on radiator hoses before installing
them? I am looking for a way to keep hoses from seizing to the
fittings, for easier removal. Of course, I don't want them to be so
well lubed that they fly off by themselves. I have a boat that I
disconnect hoses every fall to add coolant, and then reconnect them
every spring for the boating season. It would be nice if I didn't
have a wrestling match every fall. I also have some old cars on
which I disconnect the lower radiator hose to drain the
radiator. Yes, there's a drain, but it will probably snap off if I
try to use it. Thanks.
