Hi,
Can you tell me where I can get a guide how to remove the radiator and hoses. Mine has the original clamps and I don't know how to remove them. Please help :(

Radiator removal is a bit more problematic and time consuming...I suppose you're talking about the oil and transmission line hoses and not the large coolant hoses? The smaller hoses are easy...use a reverse pr. of pliers to push the metal clip apart. Once it's off, just pull out the hose. Reverse this process to replace the hoses...use a plastic zip tie around the metal clip once you have it over your hose.

As this is unrelated to the original thread, I've split off mine and the previous post to a new topic.
