Thanks for making this video man.
Exactly what I was looking for, great video. Thanks a bunch!
You're welcome!
I can’t seem to get the damn rubber piece around the nipple on the thermostat housing tube. Any tips?
I used the knife on my Gerber tool to keep slicing the same spot until it started to split and then I was able to split the time apart and rip it off the plastic nozzle and nipple. But notice how I said I kept slicing. Don't apply too much pressure, you wouldn't want to break the plastic nozzle. I just kept slicing and slicing the same spot, with gentle-ish pressure until I could split it open.
Ok, what are you do if you broke the tip with the O-rings off in the radiator side?
Hey, nice MT-10 in the background
why is my hose different? my hose has a thin end to it and this new one is much thicker like twice the thickness with an o-ring
Muy buena explicación , muchas gracias 👍
How are your butterfly clips going in so easily? I was pushing on those with all my might and couldn't get them in.
RAW STRENGTH !!!! ;) Nah just put some grease on the o rings and should go in easier
I know this is late but for anyone else checking comments, I had this exact issue and my arms are far from noodles lol ( 2016 focus 2.0 btw,) you got to turn it a certain way. For me it was clockwise (standing in front of the vehicle facing the windshield) somewhere between 30° to 60° for the end connecting to radiator. Finally slipped right in!
@@KevMo-f3d The male end of mine was tool long. I actually filed it down with a sander and it fit.
@@KevMo-f3d The male piece I was trying to push in was too long. I actually had to shave off material for to make it shorter for it to go in.
Thank you
You're welcome
HI IS THIS PART BV618K012KF AND DO YOU SELL THEM
Man, I’m struggling with this replacement. Getting the old one out required separately removing the old seals out of reservoir and radiator. The replacement part locally available with commercial account was a Doorman brand. It will not go into the radiator. Can not get the new O-Ring to pass into its place. Oil, grease, 2 different sets of pliers for additional force. Second pair of eyes and hands to try. The original seal in radiator also had to be removed separately after hose removal and it’s possible the picking out the original seal scored the inside of the radiator just enough to cause the issues. A little sanding with 100 grit paper was still no go. This 10 minute job can turn into a nightmare fast. 😅
Same issue with hose going into radiator. How did you get it to go in
I hate doing auto mechanics.
@@dustinurbaczek7800 the hose ends have to go inside of two slots in the radiator and overflow if one end doesn’t go in these slots there will be a leak.
Practice by seeing this in the overflow side first. Then you’ll know what I mean by slots. Then you’ll use your phone or mirror for the radiator side, to see where those inner slots are in there.
Is there a different part for different focus ? I have a 2014 ford focus and the part I got fits on the overflow tank and on the block but not on the radiator.
@@luisparamo9402 based on what you are describing, you have the right part 🤣. You unfortunately are experiencing what everyone else has experienced and found this video. You have the right part. There’s a chance the end you have in the resivor is not truly in. For some reason that end will appear to be in easier, but mine leaked because I didn’t understand how these work.
There are two grooves inside of where the hose ends go. Radiator is very hard to see. You can try using a phone camera or a mirror and flashlight, but there are 2 slots in there your new hose has to line up with to go into. Same on that overflow or expansion tank. You could and probably should remove that one. Take a careful close look in there. In that opening you’ll eventually see these slots the new hose has to go into, so you’ll be leak free and not overheating on the side of a road.
Thanks ✌️👍
Welcome 👍
Why replace??? Use a plug to plug the coolant bottle recirculation, use a plug to block off the line on the radiator, and use another plug to block off the water neck where the line starts. I see no point in recirculating hot coolant in such little quantity back to that cheap plastic tank and even cheaper plastic cap on the tank??.lol. what am I missing by doing this? We never had recirculation small lines on our old cars, just pressure release radiator caps and over flow bottles. All gas and pressure is released through the 21lb pressure cap.
What useless function am I missing? I had the clip on the coolant bottle line which broke, so I bypassed it all last week.
Hard to sell.
Expensive for that part!
Its not depends where you get it from Amazon selling this part for very cheap and affordable
