- Remove hose
Drain the coolant from the system before removing either of the hoses. Remove the clamp using the appropriate tool. If the hose is stuck and won't pull off easily, be careful you do not damage the radiator fitting by using too much force. It is better to cut the hose in several places so that you can remove it easily. Clean the hose fittings thoroughly on both the engine and the radiator with fine sandpaper or emery cloth, so that it will make a good seal with the new hose.
- Verify replacement
Obtain new hoses and compare them with the removed hoses to make sure they are the same length and diameter. If the hose is a molded type, the new one must also have the same pre-formed curve.
