Subject:84 Vanagon Bursting Coolant Hoses
From:Jack Loranger
Date:Wed, 7 Mar 2007 22:37:02 -0800

Hi all,
 I have an 84 water-cooled gas engine Vanagon that has been blowing
coolant hoses one after another.
First it was the lower water pump hose, I replaced it and took a test
drive and blew one of the transmission coolant hoses, replaced it, then
went for a short drive and one of the large upper hoses blew.  I am
afraid to keep going this way.  Could it be a stuck thermostat or
something that I should be looking for?
Thanks for your help.
