Rich, how's your dad doing?

LCCharlie commented on 15 Dec 2015

Isn't this car the most unreliable, breaks down very often type of car?

+Toonses yes it is. it's built by opel, a german subsidiary of general motors.

Ijust cut those connectors off and just use a hose clamp good as new 5 min job

Toonses commented on 13 Dec 2015

+Mike Hunt Doesn't look like if you cut the connector off on the heater side. That there would be room to push a hose on.

I hope it sealed well, thats nice and cheap :-D The old ring just looked burnt/melted, as if the engine got way too hot, sometime in its life. Its odd to see an O ring melt, normally they just become hard and brittle. Did you jump from night time to the next day?, it looked brighter.

+zx8401ztv I just added more light.

How to Take Heater Hoses Off Like a BOSS !!!

User Comments

Jafromobile commented on 18 Jun 2013

My only advice is... some manufacturer's heater core end tanks are VERY fragile. The BEST method IS the LAST method if you don't know how hard you can pull on it before breaking the heater core. It's best to just be on the safe side and ALWAYS CUT them off and replace them every time you have to take either end loose for any reason. Hoses don't last forever, and these love to rot. Very cheap insurance if you plan for it. You covered it all Klowny. Great video! I'm giving you a big (ツ) b

Its ok if you dont understand how cars work..thats what im here for :) first thing is..i said to put some grease on the nipples..i didnt say lube it up like tbe way you do your greased pigs..second, ive been doing this for over 30 years and never once have i seen a rubber hose failure from the grease..also if you look at my tool its not a pipe wrench..it has a blue handle.they are channel locks..u should google image "pipe wrench" to understand what im talking about

brad b commented on 12 Oct 2013

It is ok to use die electric grease, like you use for the end of a spark plug. And also you should take this grease and put it on the rubber that seals up your doors,and after you do that put it on your car window track and it will go up and down nice and smooth (not for bedroom use)..

Football Genius commented on 14 Jan 2016

im so happy that some people are criticizing this video. Different peopled opinion actually helped me understand more about the fragility of the heater core and the effects of grease on rubber! Also i found out you can use your barehands to take off thr clamps!

gimmethecarkeys commented on 19 Jun 2013

Just pull it off while your doing I it! Grease the hose when you put the new one on... wtf... grease and rubber dont mix... grease eats rubber! And fyi you dont need a pipe wrench to get a hose clamp off!

klowny1969 commented on 18 Jun 2013

Lol thanks man..i appreicate the advice..ive been rolling around under a 2001 ford escape today..did quick struts and a cv axle..will post up once its edited..im beat lol

hunkydude322 commented on 19 Aug 2013

its ok Klowny, u doin good job, some folks out there think they know it all, or just like to critzise follks, no matter if your correct, so keep the good work up .

Ryan Ainsworth commented on 24 Oct 2015

Thanks for the advice. I've been having troubles trying to get one of the hoses off, so I can flush my heater core. It's almost like it's sealed on there.

gimmethecarkeys commented on 19 Jun 2013

Listen to jafromobile. He knows his shit. Tips and tricks are nice, but do your research before hand.

jeremy vicory commented on 07 Dec 2013

Grease will break down the rubber of a water line. Do not lube with grease.

Caveman305 commented on 28 Jul 2013

are you being serious? since when does grease eat rubber?

Identifying a heater hose coolant leak

User Comments

Marshall Turner commented on 24 Oct 2015

Heater hose underneath the distributor cap. Fuck me. Every video I've seen is the same shit, but no video on the proper procedure of replacing. Looks like I'm gonna have to take off the cap and then remove it, because the numbskull who put the hose on, put the clamp point on the nearside when faceing the engine, making it next to impossible to fit my huge ass hands into. Sorry for the youtube rant, just have class at 8 am monday and had plans and this shit happens. Fuckin lovely.

Sierra Noel commented on 22 Sep 2012

talk to a mechanic or guys at the parts store. for me, it was Easy to replace: drain coolant, remove the air filter arm that goes to air filter (a few clamps and one or two other attachments that unscrew or pop off, just remember for reassembly), reach down and remove two hose clamps on heater hose, remove busted hose, put clamps on new hose, dip ends in coolant (helps them slide on easier), adjust clamps, put back the air filter cover and tubing - refill coolant

Sierra Noel commented on 22 Sep 2012

you can actually go to your local parts store (a chain like oreilly or autozone) and i believe both of those places carry vehicle service manuals that have handy how-to guides for almost everything you need to take apart , and they let you rent tools on a deposit (you get the deposit back when you return tools) .. some of them even let you work in their parking lot

mlincoln7783 commented on 22 Sep 2012

I have had a coolant leak in that same exact general area for the last few days. My car overheated today, I guess it was leaking more than I though. Same car, only it's a 1996. Please tell me if you find out anything! or send me a link if this is for a forum?

mlincoln7783 commented on 22 Sep 2012

Great, found out it was a hose leak. I was able to cut off the hole and stretch the hose back in place. but now it wont start! haha. I think it may have been the spark plug wires or one of the wire housings I unplugged to get to the hose...

Sierra Noel commented on 22 Sep 2012

@mlincoln7783 why not just get a new hose? Only like $10-$15

PleasuredImSure commented on 31 Aug 2013

what is the name of that hose, i have the same leak

PleasuredImSure commented on 31 Aug 2013

People always forget about the heater hoses, espically the hoses for the heater core. They can be a beast to get to sometimes but don't neglect to change them or you will be overneating on the side of the road. My dad use to say, I'd rather have my hood up in the driveway than on the side of the road.
