    Default Coolant hose problem/bleeder... NEED Advise/Help

    Hey Guys, so got home earlier and too find that my 95 Z28 is pissing coolant now...

    I found where its leaking from... Its small hole on the edge of the bleeder valve. I circled in red where the pin hole is located.



    Any one has an idea what this hose is called? where does it connect? is there a easy fix instead of replacing the whole hose?

    thanks

    See that steel crimp where it attaches to the pipe with the bleeder in it? Dremel that off, go to parts store and get a 5/8" heater hose 90, cut to length and install with two hose clamps
