If they look good, reuse them. As long as you haven't taken a torch to them they shouldn't have lost any of their springiness. I have one of the craftsman spring clamp pliers that is cable operated. It sure does make getting into "impossible" areas go smoothly. Mike Marty Kulmus wrote: > I have every coolant hose on a vanagon coming to me so I can replace the 20! > year old hoses on my westy.
