This morning I noticed my lower radiator hose was leaking. It was the short one that comes out of the water pump. I just replaced it, but I'm not sure how long its going to last. The replacement hose I got from autozone had a little more bend in it than the actual angle between the two pipes, and to replace it without having to pull off the water pump and doing everything involved with that I ended up cutting about three quarters of an inch off of that pipe it goes into above the oil filter and doing some extensive trimming to the hose itself. Has anyone else ever replaced just the hose without turning it into a huge job? The Ex is a 97 with the V8.
