That is a pic of the side of the water pump before i fixed it (where the leak was) actually so you cant see it. I simply removed the qc (molded to the original hose) and stuck the hose in its place with a hose clamp. The replacement hoses do not come with the connectors molded on, you can buy them seperately but i chose not to. Just seems like an unnecessary potential failure mode.
Yeah I was driving on a back road behind wal-mart one day and started to smell coolant pretty heavy and thought to myself, damn someone’s about to have a bad day. Yeah it was me bc the next I know that qc at the heater core blew off on mine. Luckily I had some hose clamps in my hoe and just cut the qc off and secured the hose back with the hose clamp. Ran in to wal-mart got more juice and off I went.
