Q: How to replace the inlet radiator hose for LLV - 2.9L and LLR - 3.7L engines on GMC Canyon?
A: Engine coolant drainage is essential before starting to replace the radiator inlet hose for vehicles with LLV - 2.9L and LLR - 3.7L engines. After using Hose Clamp Pliers (J 38185) to shift the inlet radiator hose clamp away from both radiator and engine components separate the hose from the radiator. Position the inlet radiator hose clamp away from the radiator with Hose Clamp Pliers (J 38185) to allow removal of the hose from the engine. To install the inlet radiator hose begin by placing it onto the engine after that use Hose Clamp Pliers (J 38185) to position the inlet radiator hose clamp correctly on the engine. Reposition the inlet radiator hose clamp to the radiator by using Hose Clamp Pliers (J 38185). Finally, fill the cooling system.
Q: How to replace the inlet radiator hose for 4.8L, 5.3L, and 6.0L engines on GMC Sierra 1500?
A: The first task to replace the radiator inlet hose for 4.8l, 5.3l, and 6.0l engines requires draining the cooling system fluids. To perform the task you should first loosen the air cleaner outlet duct clamps situated at the Throttle Body and maf/iat sensor before removing the radiator inlet hose clip from the outlet hose and the air cleaner outlet duct. Disassembling the engine sight shield lets you detach the radiator vent inlet hose from its clips on the radiator inlet hose. First shift the inlet hose clamp to the radiator before taking out the inlet hose from both the Fan Shroud and the radiator. To proceed with installation remove the inlet hose from the Water Pump while repositioning its clamp at the Water Pump. Install the inlet hose by attaching it to the Water Pump while positioning its clamp at the Water Pump. To install the inlet hose you must first position it at the radiator before installing the inlet hose clamp at the radiator location. Install the radiator vent inlet hose to the radiator inlet hose clips after reattaching the inlet hose clip on the Fan Shroud. Open the engine sight shield only if required then put it back while pointing the arrow from the air cleaner outlet duct towards the Throttle Body attaching stud before reinstalling the air cleaner outlet duct. Next install the radiator inlet hose clip onto the outlet duct while also tightening the air cleaner outlet duct clamps at the Throttle Body and maf/iat sensor to 4 nm (35 inch lbs.). Complete the procedure by filling the cooling system.
Q: How to replace the radiator hose inlet on GMC Yukon?
A: Draining the cooling system must be your first step before you begin to replace the Radiator vent inlet hose. Begin by moving the vent inlet hose clamp away from its position on the Radiator before removing the hose from the Radiator. Move and remove the vent inlet hose clamp from the surge tank before removing the vent inlet hose from the surge tank. Begin installation by connecting the vent inlet hose to the surge tank followed by repositioning the vent inlet hose clamp to the surge tank. Proceed with installing the vent inlet hose on the Radiator before returning the vent inlet hose clamp to the hose's radiated end. Finally, fill the cooling system.
