[Tigers] Lower Radiator Hose Spring

[Carmods at aol.com]

For some reason, some hose suppliers have quit supplying the springs in  
lower hoses, probably some low cost un-American supplier. I  found that a  
"Rainbird"  impulse lawn sprinkler has a stainless spring that works  great  to keep 
the lower hose from collapsing as the RPM goes  up.  Since I replace these 
sprinklers in my lawn regularly, they  don't cost me anything but you can buy a 
sprinkler head for about $16.00 and  it's worth it just to find a spring. I 
have given several away to those who  wonder why their car suddenly starts to 
overheat as they speed up, and solved  their problem.
