welcome to dorman Products coolant tea and hose o-ring kit installation video
before you begin this installation is considered medium difficulty by our
technicians some basic car knowledge is required and should take approximately
one hour to complete begin the install by attaching a drainage hose to the
nipple this helps to keep everything clean as the coolant drains into the pan
remove the coolant cap and drain the coolant
next take off the two clamps for the intake tube then disconnect the tube and
move it out of the way use the pick tool to remove electrical connector from the
throttle housing
next remove bolts to take off the throttle body and then disconnect the
housing to insert a rag into the throttle body to prevent debris from
entering the throttle next use the pick tool to break the seal on the hose and
pull the hose out
then release the metal band on the coolant tea and gently pry under the
hose to loosen then remove the old oring and replace with a new o-ring by sliding
the new ring into the groove behind the lip make sure to clean tubes to remove
dirt or debris that may get in between the tube and oring because dirt and
debris may cause the o-ring to leak note use silicon lubricant on surfaces that
make contact with the o-rings so they don't tear the o-ring and the ring will
slide right on
next connect hoes back to the thermostat hose put bolts back into the throttle
body note always make sure to start by hand so the bolts don't get cross
threaded tighten the bolts to fact respect with a torque wrench
then put clamp back on the hose and slide the hose back on then slide the
retaining clip back up next replace the o-ring on the lower radiator hose pop
the clip out and take the hose off
use the pry tool to remove the old aurait
then clean out the tube before putting in the new o-ring foot lubricant on the
o-ring and slide it into the groove behind the lip
use silicon lubricant on surfaces that make contact with a hose
finally slide the hose back into the groove and pop the clip back onto the
hose
