okay you can do that right there and

okay you can do that right there and then I'm going to do that right there

then I'm going to do that right there

then I'm going to do that right there and be sure to remove this cap so if

and be sure to remove this cap so if

and be sure to remove this cap so if float the coolant flows better on the

float the coolant flows better on the

float the coolant flows better on the bottom I went ahead and loosen this

bottom I went ahead and loosen this

bottom I went ahead and loosen this screw here and as you can see it

screw here and as you can see it

screw here and as you can see it actually flows from the side right there

actually flows from the side right there

actually flows from the side right there and this hope it's connected to the

and this hope it's connected to the

and this hope it's connected to the expansion tank as well so let's go ahead

expansion tank as well so let's go ahead

expansion tank as well so let's go ahead and let it drink and I just discovered

and let it drink and I just discovered

and let it drink and I just discovered that this plug here you can't remove it

that this plug here you can't remove it

that this plug here you can't remove it it actually stays in place so make sure

it actually stays in place so make sure

it actually stays in place so make sure you don't try to pull the whole thing

you don't try to pull the whole thing

you don't try to pull the whole thing out just loosen it up and little drain

out just loosen it up and little drain

out just loosen it up and little drain it'll flow out through here

it'll flow out through here

it'll flow out through here the only plug you can remove is the one

the only plug you can remove is the one

the only plug you can remove is the one that goes right here okay so make that

that goes right here okay so make that

that goes right here okay so make that point as your little letting the coolant

point as your little letting the coolant

point as your little letting the coolant drain I just want to point something out

drain I just want to point something out

drain I just want to point something out this is the drain plug now if you notice

this is the drain plug now if you notice

this is the drain plug now if you notice that coolant is leaking out through this

that coolant is leaking out through this

that coolant is leaking out through this section here it can be a quick and easy

section here it can be a quick and easy

section here it can be a quick and easy fix by just replacing this black seal

fix by just replacing this black seal

fix by just replacing this black seal there if it's cracked or it's old

there if it's cracked or it's old

there if it's cracked or it's old coolant will sift through it and

coolant will sift through it and

coolant will sift through it and eventually you'll see it come out from

eventually you'll see it come out from

eventually you'll see it come out from the bottom here okay so there's

the bottom here okay so there's

the bottom here okay so there's something for you to remember as the

something for you to remember as the

something for you to remember as the coolant is draining we can go ahead and

coolant is draining we can go ahead and

start removing the hoses here there's

start removing the hoses here there's one clip here two and three and all the

one clip here two and three and all the

one clip here two and three and all the clips you have to do it stick a flat

clips you have to do it stick a flat

clips you have to do it stick a flat screwdriver and pop them out I did that

screwdriver and pop them out I did that

screwdriver and pop them out I did that one right there do that from the top

one right there do that from the top along the project you're also going to

along the project you're also going to

along the project you're also going to need some cutters because you're going

need some cutters because you're going

need some cutters because you're going to find that some hoses or wires are

to find that some hoses or wires are

to find that some hoses or wires are attached bicep ties you have to go ahead

attached bicep ties you have to go ahead

attached bicep ties you have to go ahead and cut them out

once you pop the clip out what you need

once you pop the clip out what you need

once you pop the clip out what you need to do is you got to go ahead and remove

to do is you got to go ahead and remove

to do is you got to go ahead and remove pull away and you can see that's how you

pull away and you can see that's how you

pull away and you can see that's how you remove the host from that side now at

remove the host from that side now at

remove the host from that side now at this point you can just go ahead and

this point you can just go ahead and

this point you can just go ahead and leave you know just disconnect this hose

leave you know just disconnect this hose

leave you know just disconnect this hose up here and you can easily remove you

up here and you can easily remove you

up here and you can easily remove you know the expansion tank what I like to

know the expansion tank what I like to

know the expansion tank what I like to do is I actually like to go ahead and

do is I actually like to go ahead and

do is I actually like to go ahead and remove the hoses now because I can use

remove the hoses now because I can use

remove the hoses now because I can use leverage and the way I do it and again

leverage and the way I do it and again

leverage and the way I do it and again be very careful how you do this is I use

be very careful how you do this is I use

be very careful how you do this is I use a pry bar and very carefully I go ahead

a pry bar and very carefully I go ahead

a pry bar and very carefully I go ahead and push the hose out again I say very

and push the hose out again I say very

and push the hose out again I say very carefully because you can also you can

carefully because you can also you can

carefully because you can also you can break it but as I'm doing this I've had

break it but as I'm doing this I've had

break it but as I'm doing this I've had two hands I will do it with the right

two hands I will do it with the right

two hands I will do it with the right hand and then with the left hand I'll be

hand and then with the left hand I'll be

hand and then with the left hand I'll be pulling away at this so let me go ahead

pulling away at this so let me go ahead

pulling away at this so let me go ahead and do that okay I went ahead and remove

and do that okay I went ahead and remove

and do that okay I went ahead and remove the top part again I use my pry bar here

the top part again I use my pry bar here

the top part again I use my pry bar here very carefully pushed on the sides on

very carefully pushed on the sides on

very carefully pushed on the sides on both both sides here and I was able to

both both sides here and I was able to

both both sides here and I was able to get it out okay and then with just some

get it out okay and then with just some

get it out okay and then with just some force I was able to pop it out so this

force I was able to pop it out so this

force I was able to pop it out so this is how the top hose looks and again be

is how the top hose looks and again be

is how the top hose looks and again be careful when you handle the hoses

careful when you handle the hoses because they still have coolant so make

because they still have coolant so make

because they still have coolant so make sure you drain them properly okay so

sure you drain them properly okay so

sure you drain them properly okay so that's a top post now we need to go

that's a top post now we need to go

that's a top post now we need to go ahead and remove the bottom hoses okay

ahead and remove the bottom hoses okay

ahead and remove the bottom hoses okay as we work ourselves down you got this

as we work ourselves down you got this

as we work ourselves down you got this hose right here it actually goes to the

hose right here it actually goes to the

hose right here it actually goes to the to the block and the pin is located

to the block and the pin is located

to the block and the pin is located towards the top let me see if we can

towards the top let me see if we can

towards the top let me see if we can probably see it but it's right there

right there we're going to pop it up

right there we're going to pop it up

right there we're going to pop it up okay so once you pop it out you go ahead

okay so once you pop it out you go ahead

okay so once you pop it out you go ahead and pull the hose out okay now with this

and pull the hose out okay now with this

and pull the hose out okay now with this hose you need to be very careful um if

hose you need to be very careful um if

there so in order for me to access it

there so in order for me to access it I'm going to go from the top okay that's

I'm going to go from the top okay that's

I'm going to go from the top okay that's how it looks when you pop it out now we

how it looks when you pop it out now we

how it looks when you pop it out now we need to start by removing this hose here

again be very careful you never use this

again be very careful you never use this as you can see it's connected to the

as you can see it's connected to the

as you can see it's connected to the lower part of the expansion tank very

lower part of the expansion tank very

lower part of the expansion tank very fragile so be careful I'm going to

fragile so be careful I'm going to

fragile so be careful I'm going to remove that by wiggling it okay removing

remove that by wiggling it okay removing

remove that by wiggling it okay removing the hose from here like this was pretty

the hose from here like this was pretty

the hose from here like this was pretty challenging for me and I didn't want to

challenging for me and I didn't want to

challenging for me and I didn't want to push it because I felt like this could

push it because I felt like this could

push it because I felt like this could break easily so what I did I went ahead

break easily so what I did I went ahead

break easily so what I did I went ahead and disconnected the hose from the

and disconnected the hose from the

and disconnected the hose from the actual a block I went ahead and pop the

actual a block I went ahead and pop the

actual a block I went ahead and pop the pin out you get more leverage here so I

pin out you get more leverage here so I

pin out you get more leverage here so I went ahead and pulled in this post

went ahead and pulled in this post

went ahead and pulled in this post basically connects down there you see

basically connects down there you see

basically connects down there you see that I prefer to do that because I felt

that I prefer to do that because I felt

that I prefer to do that because I felt I was going to break the expansion tank

I was going to break the expansion tank

I was going to break the expansion tank if I kept forcing it out okay I was

if I kept forcing it out okay I was

if I kept forcing it out okay I was having a hard time pulling this
