Hi folks time to be a pain again lol
behind the water pump on the vm diesel their is 2 hoses 1 of mine is leaking shame its the inside 1 tho
whats the easiest way to tackle the job of replacing them
do i take the engine mount out to access the bottom hose clamps
remove the intercooler intake
and allso remove the water pump
then again i'm sure if i was to remove the oil filter mount that would be a help
i do hope i'm on the right track lol
any other ideas please do pass them on
Benny
All the hoses are pretty easy to get to - just start pulling stuff off until you can access the one you want - intercooler hoses etc i mean. Even the water pump comes off easily if you need to take it off. If you do take the water pump apart, dont rely on the hair thin o ring to reseal, you'll need to put on a little bit of gasket goo too.
Good opportunity to change your coolant too. And check for wear points on the hoses.
your right with that mountain man i think they may be pulling my chain lol
good time to replace the water pump and a couple of suspect welsh plugs
Murray any chance i can get you to measure the welsh plugs some time and pass the sizes on then i'll pay diesel spares a visit their even cheaper then super cheap lol
