heater
I need to install the hose fitting in the lower radiator hose on my 40 coupe. Any hints/instructions on how to "cut" the hose to install??
Thanks in advance for any help. Paul in CT |

DO apply Indian head Shellac to both sides of the fitting plates when doing the actual installation. I trust you realize the nipple is NOT at the top of the hose. Rather, it is about 30° rotated to the right.

Re: heater
Maybe kind of lay out the hose routing before you stamp out the hole in the lower hose. You'll quickly see it (the nipple) needs to be rotated from the top - center.
