Hose repaired, Thanks Manolo 200 1989

The hose from the heater core that goes under the engine had failed, but only when the engine under load in conjuction with a weak engine mount. The mount and other hose will be fixed next week and I'll baby the car on the trip. The hose to the back of the block seems OK, but I'll have tools and heater hose with me just in case. That one will be much easier. With the help of a mirror and a ramp to stand on I went along side the lower flame trap hose after removing the flametrap. It actually wasn't bad after my initial frustration with just finding the leak. I couldn't see the leak as it was on an inside bend of the shaped hose and it didn't stream out.
Have a nice weekend all,
Palmer
