Coolant Leak Help

Post by Luther White »

I have a leak on my radiator top passenger side. Looks like a transmission coolant line. It is a small one and I am replacing the heater hoses and vac line while I in there and figured I would go ahead and replace this as well. Does anyone know if there is a special tool to pull the line out with and replace a seal or something????
Thanks

The clip opens to both sides and is pulled back. A new clip will be needed as the old clips usually break/rust

So a flat headed screw driver and some pliers should do the job???
