Need a how to on radiator hose

[rdwngs444]

I have a small upper rad hose leak and want to replace it myself, can you guys give me a how to, I'm assuming I don't need to drain the whole system.

Thanks in advance

Well its gonna get dirty.

You dont have too but its recommended. When i did mine i had it drained and it still pushed out antifreeze all over me..

Also to remove the hose you need skinny metal rods to remove the little ring that holds it on

Now just put new on on and boom done.
(I would recommend drain it in a clean bucket)1 minute tops to drain
and then work . Let me know how it goes!!
