[Tigers] Lower Radiator Hose

There should be a loose wire "spring" inside the lower hose to prevent collapse.  My most recent hose didn't come with one, so I pulled the spring out of the old one.

A better question to ask is, Why is the belt vibrating enough to damage the hose?  Or is the collapsed hose moving into the belt's path? My belt vibrated because the generator pulley got warped during remeoval efforts.  It wore throught he lower hose 5 hours from home, but just minutes from the Sunbeam convention site that was my destination.  

The pulley replaced, there was little vibration noted, but I fabricated a shield for the lower hose, just in case.
