Anyone have any tips on fitting a new hose ?

The hose is the drivers side lower coolant hose, it connects to the rad and just near the oil filter.
There is also a connecion up near the inlet manifold but im not sure how to connect it


Its a m reg valver with no oil cooler, any help wanted thanks

Either that or anyway i can fix the old hose? it has only a small leek

If your gonna fit it yourself putting the lower rad pipe back on the rad connection is a twat.

Get it half over the lip of the connection and run a screwdriver around the mouth of the connection and the hose should pop on.

Failing that get some rad leak stopper, or some pipe tape, should stop it leaking for a fair amount of time.
