Gently remove the lower radiator hose from the radiator and use a wide shallow drain pan to catch the coolant.
Why does a hose pipe tend to move backward when the fireman directs a powerful stream of water towards fire?
The water from the house pipe rushes out with great speed in forward direction (action of house pipe on water).Then due to Newton's 3rd law of motion the house pipe moves in backward direction as a reaction.
Why is there pressure in the upper radiator hose?
There should be 15-17 psi in the cooling system when warmed up under normal operation. Any more than that the radiator cap should release.
How has the history of the firefighter been changed?

Why do firemen brace themselves when aiming a fire hose?
The pressure exerted from the hose would be more than enough to knock the fireman holding it backwards, so the fireman braces himself for that force so that he can remain upright to continue fighting the fire.
Why when a fireman is holding and emit large amount of water using the hose another fireman need to support him so he does not fall backward?
Every force has an equal and opposite reaction, and in order to fire large amounts of water out of a hose a large amount of force is needed. This large force's opposing force tries to push the hose backwards, which is why a hose flails around whenever you let go of it. The fireman is there in order to provide yet another force, to counteract the recoil from the hose, keeping it in place. However, if the recoil from the hose is too strong, it could potentially overpower the fireman, and break the grip his boots have on the ground, causing him to fall and be pushed backwards. Thus you have multiple firemen hold the hose, in order to lessen the force one firefighter has to endure, and to keep the hose in place if one falls.

How do you change thermostat on 97 Plymouth breeze 2.0?
To change the thermostat on a 1997 Plymouth Breeze 2.0, a bucket should be placed under the vehicle where the hose for the thermostat is. This will catch any leaking antifreeze. Remove the hose clamp from the top radiator hose where it connects to the engine. Note how the thermostat is positioned in the hose. Remove the old thermostat and replace with a new one. Tighten the hose clamp after reconnecting it to the motor. Check antifreeze level and refill if necessary.

Fire hose should be cleaned and dried after each use. It should also be inpected and pressure tested on an annual basis.
