I wouldn't. You may crack something such as the exhaust manifolds. Better to let it cool down on it's own. Also, it is usually best to let the engine run to cool itself down. If it's not running the coolant can't circulate and the fan may not function. Unless there is no coolant, then you're s.o.l. and might wanna pray a little.
An oil coolant?æ hose is a tube or pipe that allows engine oil to circulate via the radiator in order to cool down. Without an oil coolant hose, oil will get to hot to operate efficiently.
There are several hoses on that engine. The largest of them is for the radiator fluid that is used to cool the engine. This hose helps it circulate around the engine block.
The easiest way is to pull the lower radiator hose. There is a petcock on the bottom of the radiator, but it's a pain to get to without a special tool. Pop the hose and you'll get about 85% of the coolant out. Have a large drain bucket handy. Make sure the engine is cool.
To fit a thermostat on a Renault Laguna, check both upper and lower hose of the car. Check the hose that is cool and fit the thermostat on the engine side of that hose.
this question is not clear what hose? on what engine
To change a radiator hose on a 1997 Vauxhall Astra, first, ensure the engine is cool and disconnect the negative battery terminal. Clamp off the hose using pliers or a hose clamp tool, then loosen the clamps at both ends of the hose and remove it. Install the new hose by securing it to the radiator and engine, tightening the clamps to ensure a snug fit. Finally, refill the cooling system with coolant and check for leaks before starting the engine.
Let the engine cool down. Locate the lower water hose at the bottom of the radiator. Unfasten the clamp or clamps, pull on the hose and the water comes out.
To change the radiator hose on a 1995 Cadillac Seville SLS, first ensure the engine is cool and disconnect the negative battery terminal. Drain the coolant from the radiator, then loosen the hose clamps on both ends of the old hose and remove it. Install the new hose by securing it to the radiator and engine, tightening the clamps, and refill the coolant before reconnecting the battery. Finally, start the engine and check for leaks.
You probably need a new thermostat. It is an inexpensive part that regulates when to let water flow through the engine to cool it. It goes in the hose that is connects the engine to the radiator. The hose is connected to the engine and it feeds water to the radiator. The thermostat is located on inside the engine side of the hose and it is actually connected to the engine.
First, make sure the engine thermostat is working. Do this by starting a cold engine and holding the top radiator hose. It should be cold, As the engine heats up, the thermostat will "open" and the hose will become hot, as the water is allowed to enter the radiator. Knowing you have hot engine water, find the fitting/hose at the rear of the engine, near the firewall. This is the hot water that waits to enter into your heater core, from the engine's manifold. Next to this hose that disappears into the firewall, will be a second hose that exits and runs back to the side tank on the top of the radiator. This is the return hose from the heater core. With the heat selector in "off", the return hose will be cool or cold. Selected to "Hot", the water will pass through the "now open" heater valve, through the core and back to the radiator. This makes that return hose warm/hot. Turning the selector back to cool will close the valve, and the return hose will cool. This is a non invasive method to check the valves ability to open & close IF the selector and it's control lines are working. The valve may not be receiving instructions from the selector. Another problem entirely.
I know that the top radiator hose on my 4.0 liter OHV gets hot when the engine thermostat opens allowing the engine coolant to flow through the radiator and the bottom return hose connects the radiator to the water pump should be cooler - sounds normal to me but I'm not a mechanic / technician
you must first put on your yamaha hose adapter for your garden hose. then without turning the water on plug the hose into the yamaha. there should be a place to put the hose in the engine compartment. then start your engine the turn the water on. make sure the water never on when the engine is off. let the pwc run at idle speed for 240 seconds (4 mins). then turn the water off and shut down your engine. gracias
