Install the surge tank inlet hose assembly on the radiator and reconnect it to the radiator with the repositioning of the hose clamp at the radiator using the hose clamp pliers (J 38185). Attach the surge tank inlet hose to the Throttle Body assembly, with moving the hose clamp (J 38185) at the Throttle Body assembly with hose clamp pliers (J 38185) and to attach the surge tank inlet hose to the surge tank with position the hose clamp (J 38185) at the surge tank with hose clamp pliers (J 38185).
