Water Pump Hose Replacement - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

ralph92ZR1 · 06-18-2006

Need some help from all you guys who may have done this already - advice about replacing the water pump hose. Before I drain all the coolant to replace this hose, it appears the only way to reach it is to remove the thermostat housing. Its very tight and I cannot get my hand in there. Are there other parts to remove to make access easier??? Hate to ask but I've spent about 2 hours reaching in from all angles and cannot seem to get it. Thanks for all your help. PS - I did search the archives of the CM and the and the service manual. No luck.

I feel stupid.
