[6pack] TR6 cooling hoses

[acekraut11 at aol.com]

 Bob,

You will still get a slight bit of draining from the coolant left in the hoses so just have a rag ready when you are ready to change the interior hoses.? I left my rubber floor mats in just to protect the area.? But really there was minimal leaking.? Hoses are a nice project, not to long and a big return in appearance.? Match up all your hoses first to make sure you dont put the wrong small hose in the wrong place since a few are similar and it is possible for them to fit in the wrong place.

Cheers,

Aaron

Hello Lists,
Spring is here. I'll be changing all the cooling hoses on my six.
I'll pull the thermostat and leave radiator cap off for draining.
Will coolent drain so heater will not drain into car?
No leaks/problems just trying to improve reliability for stop and go driving
in hot weather.
I already have green hoses and clips set.
Any and all thoughts/suggestions appreciated.
Regards,
Bob
