Subject:Hose has a brass sleeve in it
From:RP
Date:Mon, 21 Feb 2005 16:15:22 -0800

I sprung a leak the other day.
I was able to reattach the hose by reaching in front
of the RR tire, filled up with water/antifreeze and
made it home.It looks like the hose is good, but it is
attached to a very long plastic hose that runs to the
radiator.
The hose (it goes over the tranny) has a reducer,
looks like brass sleeve, which goes into the long
plastic return line.
Do I have the wrong hose?
Do I need the reducer?
Should I just yank this brass sleeve and clamp down to
the plastic feed/return line?
A couple of pics.
