- From the beginning I thought that coolant is leaking from water pump, since timing belt and water pump were replaced aprox. 65 000 miles ago... When I took more close view I found out that coolant is leaking from the hose near by thermostat... After this hose were replaced the issue were fixed...
Make sure that you disconnected negative terminal of the battery...
You will need to remove manifold to perform this labor...Before disconnecting fuel line... release the pressure in fuel system by removing gas cap. Small amount of gas can leak while disconnecting fuel line, be very careful not to produce any spark..
Thank you for the video, very helpful and informative. Stupid Manufacture, all this work to put a $1.00 hose, took me about an hour to fine the leak, I knew it wasnt the water pump because I replaced it with the timmimng belt 30 to 40,000 miles ago. Thanks for the video... Dziękuję
Happy to help… thank you for your comment.
Pretty sure you just solved my problem. It's a very slow leak, but can smell burning antifreeze while I'm driving. Have not been able to pin down where it's coming from and it doesn't look like it's coming from the water pump. I had timing, water pump, tensioner pulley and motor mounts replaced 2 years ago so I'm hoping it's not the pump. That's a real pain to replace again. Thanks for this, I had no idea that little hose was there and I never looked at it to see if that's what's leaking. I appreciate your video!!
Happy to help.
I am gonna check this out. I have had a leak in my 95 Neon for years actually. I always assumed it water pump but plenty of heat so I just keep refilling overflow and only use in town. Now that I see there is a hose under manifold I am gonna check it out. Thanks for the video.

thank you this is EXACTLY what i needed. i wasn't sure of taking off the manifold but now i know. thanks!

Working on leak.water pump less then 1 year old hoses looked good.took water pump off found bad o ring
Might be a dumb question to ask, but any idea what that pipe is called mine seems to be rusted out. I looked up coolant pipe heater bypass and I’m not getting anything besides plastic ones. Mine seems to be metal.
I doubt that there is any specific name for this pipe…
I was jacking up my car and antifreeze and water leaked everywhere I checked top of radiator and its low could it be I cracked a hose
it could something else, not only this defective hose...
Mine leaks after driving it for a while but doesn't pour out like this one only drips slowly but I'm thinking this may be the problem on my 04 sxt model
yes it might there is a way to check by taking it apart
It's leaking from the front of the car once I let the car off the jack after it leaked out its still leaking
it could something else, not only this defective hose...
I just changed my bypass hose without taking the intake manifold apart.
that's good to hear you safe some decent amount of time!
Alexey Gavrilov I'm glad that I was able to do it. It saved me $250
How
ugh!! ok it looks so simple!
i took my temostat out of a 2000 dodge neon now its leaking all the antifreeze out what up with that
what size tube is that
+Jamal Howell I don't remember... Just go to local auto parts store and show them the faulty tube, they will sell you perfect fit replacement...
what tools are needed
What inch wide is the hose?
just bring your old one to AutoZone, they will find correct replacement for you.
Alexey Gavrilov okay thank you
Do you know what the hose is called mine is all ripped up and stuff.
how long did this take?
+Allysia Hunter it's all depends how professional mechanic you are and you should get a helper, just in case...
I have a 2004 dodge neon and a man at the shop said its 95$hr for labor that's y I was trying to see how long it took. I probably could do it myself. Where do I get the hose from and if I need new clamps?
it takes about 2 hours for this labor...
Can we hang out though bro?
he he, which city and state, include also time afternoon I guess so, or what bro...
@@gavrilovas1 Hey what size is that coolant one you replaced? I'm doing that today and I can't find the size
ugh!! ok it looks so simple!
