Coolant Seals? Or Something Less Drastic? Long Story...
I went off this. I didn't even get to start the car, and found out right away (DAMN LUCKY!). Though everyones advice was great. I would have used it all if I had not found the leak. I just went under the car, and felt around where I saw moisture. Next thing you know after I squeeze the hose, freaking liduid started dripping. I felt a bit more, and felt a rip right behind the clamp. Damn old hoes....
Ask me how I know about that hose
Just call Ray and give him the general location of the hose. He knows where it is. Since you need to do coolant, look around and see if there are any other hoses that could use replacing.
I suggest re-using the stock style constant torque hose clamps. Much better than the worn gear type hose clamps.
Hey, I ordered the part, but I just took off the old hose, and brought it in to my local Mazda Dealer (Tracy Mazda here in Nor Cal), and they set me up. It was $29 with tax for that hose (Heater hose). I am going to reuse the stock clamps. They're just a bitch to deal with. I didn't even get to read this second page until today. Since the club was down. I would have ordered through Ray, but couldn't figure out what hose it was. Thanks for all the replies, and my car should be running as soon as I get the part!
