need help to id hose
Hello all
2 weeks ago replaced leaky expansion tank all was well, however now I have noticed a leak, maybe coolant?, coming from a large connecter about 12" below the throttle body assy on passenger side of middle, that attaches to a metal connector that looks like it goes to the transmission , Is this a cooling line looks like just a bad clamp? but since going to trans not sure.
Any info on this hose would be welcome, maybe now that expansion tank is not leaking extra pressure has moved leak to another soft spot
Thanks

Sounds like the Norma connector from the metal tube from the coolant pump area to the 'octopus' heater system hose between the throttle body and the fire wall. Famous for leaking. The solution is to replace a simple, common 'O' ring within the connector. Unfortunately, getting to the O ring is a problem.
