How do I get the hose off?

And do you know the part number of that hose?

I had that Fancy blue hose come with my Intake Gaskets

But I ended up using the Peice of blue hose that came with egr deleate and 2 worm drive hose clamps

I figure the higher odds with Oring Fail in the OEM Part so that why I went old fashion hose clamp combo

You can just get a peice of 5/8heater hose though

Yes Sir

I just measured it the OEM one I didnt use

it Measures 11/16 Inside Diameter on the OEM One with the Orings its probably 5/8 at the Orings inside


Now I used 5/8 ID heater hose for my coolant filter

You will be fine with 5/8 inch ID heater hose and couple clamps

Or they had that little Hose with a Intake manafold gasket kit which ever you want to go




Hows the project coming anyways are you making any headway

Actually... Not too bad.... Passenger side cake walk driver side ok just that one bolt on the very back on the bottom but if you undo the engine mounts and the trans crossmember jack up on the trans to tilt the engine then it comes out. So overall 7 out of 10
