Default Re: Engine fan replacement 1930 Model A

To remove hoses, without the special tool of Post #34, twist the hose at the connection with a pair of channel lock pliers until it breaks loose. It can easily be removed then.

A light smear of rubber lubricating grease will make the hose go on easy and come off easy next time. Do not use a lot of the grease or it will contaminate the radiator.
