michael5556 247 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Depends on how bad the split is around the bottom. Should be able too if it's not too bad. Otherwise it's a new hose Link to post Share on other sites
legvw 0 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 If the hose has split like that I'd replace it, as it will only fail again as the rubber has perished. Link to post Share on other sites
rsweeney 40 Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 just finished doing it no leaks for the time being will order new hose in , how expensive are they ? its on an auto so the hose is longer- has a feed to oil cooler on gearbox Link to post Share on other sites
