Brads_st Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Hi guys, I recently bought a 2007 mondeo st tdci and recently had a little front end bumper nothing major. I had everything checked over and all was fine but they mentioned by radiator been ‘worn’ so I replaced this my self with a new one. And now I have a leak from the bottom radiator hose where it’s joins the radiator to me & a few friends the hose isn’t on right and not sealing right, this means I haven’t pushed it on enough and I struggle to do so am I been stupid or is there a special tool to push these hoses on ? Any help will will be appreciated I’m very new to fords and are stumped by this ! This is my mondoon \| Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pragmatix Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 No tool, just pressure a little lubricant helps , washing up liquid on the metal bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brads_st Posted January 17, 2019 Author Share Posted January 17, 2019 Cheers for the reply I have tried washing up liquid but still not in right and there not much room to grab it firm. Getting a new bumper this weekend so should have some more room to have a try again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
