rescue tape?

I use it twice... once on my own van the other time on that fellow....
works very well..

basically you wrap tightly around a burst section of a hose..(secure with
some plastic tie if you have but nor necessary)... the tape will
contract tightly and hold...

I did that on one on those little hose out of the oil cooler and I forgot
it for about 2K miles... until the day I change the oil and notice it...
still no leak after the patching job...
