Quick Hose Repair

March 08, 2011
Quick Tips
Keep some short pieces of PVC pipe in your toolbox, roughly the same diameter as your heater hoses and your upper and lower radiator hoses. When you are on the trail and you or someone else blows a hose, simply cut the hose in half where the hole is and insert the appropriate size of PVC pipe. Seal the connection with those extra hose clamps you brought with you, and you?re ready to roll. Don?t forget to check your coolant level.
