      @@Blah2829 KH570 for the inlet, which is what went out on mine. I also ordered the outlet which is part # KH573 .
      I got OEM motorcraft parts so they’re a bit more expensive than the doorman part he linked in the description.

    This is great! Pulled into a parking lot today in my '14 Platty straight to a steam show. The engine side of the hose broke clean off right at the fitting. Replacement hose on AMZ is around $40-50, local supply stores around $80! It will be here in 2-3 days, then I will know what to do when it arrives. Thank you!

    I followed this video for my 2014 F150... 2 hours later and I got the new hose on! Took me a little longer because it's 27 degrees F in southern IN, and I kept having to go inside to keep my fingers from freezing solid lol!!! I bought one of those pliers that are designed for those clips. The one in the front wasn't too bad, but the one in the back was really difficult to get off. It beats paying a mechanic to do it for $500! Thank you for this detailed video. I hope I never have to do this again!

      @BLUECOLLARGARAGE  4 місяці тому +1

      You can but you’d have to find the correct one and I don’t know who sells it. I figure it’s just safer to replace the whole hose that way your getting new rubber as well

    some info Don't know about the 2014 and prior, 2015 and up have a 3/4 hose and the fitting is 3/4
    The Fitting is Dorman 90 degree 800-418 is 3/4 push to 3/4 hose
    or 800-411 is a straight if preferred, I believe 90 is better because the hose pulls hard on either straight or 45 fitting causing fatigue.
    I find a hot knife is best to remove the FACTORY plastic fitting. Heat a junk knife or metal slice and push through plastic collar. As needed crush/squeeze the plastic nipple to get them out, do not loose the chunks into the hoses.
    If the engine connector is leaking/rotten most certainly the TEES are rotten too.
    1in PEX barb has 3/4 OD (push-on fittings, do not use expansion type PEX fittings)
    Buy 2 BRASS TEE PEX Fittings
    clamps
    I was able to reuse the hose from the TEE to the engine... the 90 elbow gave it a little more length. Splices are just as easy too if needed, I'd use PEX brass fittings.
    Info
    Dorman 800-404 is a straight 3/4 push to 1/2 hose
    Dorman 800-403 is a straight 1/2 push to 1/2 hose

      I had no success being able to unclip the back so I reached in with a Dremel with a mini saw blade and cut it off. Did it carefully so as not to cut the metal nipple.

    Good day. I have a 2017 Ford F150 5.0 v8. I think the video might solve my program. Yesterday, I saw a heavy coolant leak at the rear of my engine running down on the bell housing. I think this hose is the problem. Another video said that if I have this problem, then this hose is where the leak is coming from. Has anyone else experienced this?

    That pink coolant shouldn't go in a container it should go in the drain. The drain on the ground. You should run motorcraft yellow. That's the update.

    • @BLUECOLLARGARAGE
      @BLUECOLLARGARAGE  Місяць тому

      You are correct motorcraft has switched back to the yellow coolant but if you keep up on coolant changes you won’t have any issues running the orange still.
