Cooling system rear hose
Hi all just looking for some advise again. Recently where I live the weather has been very hot and my car would loose coolant. I have checked the hoses that I can see and they all appear ok. I am wondering if the hose that sits between firewall and engine could be at fault. To check this hose it would appear to be necessary to remove the Fuel injection system.is this a difficult job????.

Re: Cooling system rear hose
Use a cooling system pressure tester. It is almost impossible to see a pin prick, and it may be leaking elsewhere. Pump it up to 10psi and look everywhere, espesially at the bottom of the cambelt cover.
