The hose was easy to replace. I learned the hard way to put the compression
spring clamp on the hose first before putting it in place (after 1/2 hour of
trying to fit it over the hose.)

Ken you were correct and only about a gallon or less coolant came out. All
over me by the way and it does not taste good (some splashed on my face and
into my mouth.)

Last question is do I need to bleed the system or just add coolant? I'm
going to tackle adding coolant after I take a shower and change work
clothes.
