Radiator Cap/Hose Broken?
Hi I recently bought my 98 XJ, and found that the hose going from the resevoir of coolant to my radiator is not actually attached to the radiator cap, and it doesn't just slide in like you'd expect it to.
It seems the cap is connected to the radiator and replacing the cap would be impossible without replacing the radiator, but would replacing the hose also suffice?
Can anyone direct me to a thread with info or help me with this?
Here are some pictures
I am aware that I need new coolant and if someone could tell me what to do. I think i just hose it out while the car is running and then replace the fluids. Is there anything more to it? cover anything?
