To service and repair the
Coolant Reservoir particularly for the replacement of
Radiator surge tank inlet hose/pipe, one should start by partially draining the cooling system. Relocate the surge tank inlet hose clamps with the hose clamp pliers (J 38185), then pull the surge tank inlet hose off the surge tank and the Radiator. Before installation, lubricate the inner diameters of the hoses with fresh coolant. Finally, install the surge tank inlet hose to the Radiator and on to the tank, using the hose clamp pliers (J 38185) again to reset the surge tank inlet hose clamp. Finally, top up this cooling system in order to finish the procedure.
