98 Taurus Hoser - Ford Forums

Hello,

Can someone please help me and suggest a way to reach clamp on

the upper radiator hose where it connects to radiator?
I need to replace hose and cannot reach the dumb clamp as it is under the top frame.

I have a 3.0 L OHV

Thank you all!

As i tell most persons on this site. If your going to keep the car and work on the car
buy the manual for it. It should solve 50% of your problems. To solve 100 percent of
your problems buy the factory manual ( big bucks ) and take an advanced course in
automotive repair for that year and model. There are special plyers for that hose if it is a spring clamp. You may have to remove the upper rad support. It's in the manual.
Good luck.
