Got home from work and heard a hissing noise from the hood. Looks like one of the hoses is either split or coming loose. Now everything is covered in anti freeze. I plan on going down to NAPA and getting replacement hoses once it cools off. I'm not a huge mechanic, so I thought I'd see if anyone has advice...

 

looks fun lol.

 

Buy yourself a repair manual for your Jeep, as it looks like it needs some maintenance done. New hoses, valve cover gasket, probably a complete tune-up while you're at it. Take care of your baby.

 

Believe it or not, I usually keep it pretty clean. Went through some mud at Red Dirt recently, and having anti freeze blased over everything doesn't help. I have the repair manual around here somewhere....

 

wow that sucks, have funn cleaning haha

 

Judging by the clamps those hoses are the originals! When you replace them put any of the ribbed covers from the old hoses onto the new ones for protection. Always use new clamps too.

 

last time one of mine went i flushed the system really good then replaced all my hoses. once one goes the others are not far behind and better to do it now while ur near the store as opposed to out on the trail... my .02
