Whats the name of the coolant hoses on a 72 that run from right by the alternator bracket to the firewall? One of mine has a pinhole in it that sprays really bad.
Thanks,
Trever

That would be the heater hoses. One of them is 5/8 inch inside diameter, the other is 3/4 inch. Just remove it and take it with you when you go to your local parts store and they can fix you up. Be sure to install new clamps.

Thanks man. I wonder what I did to make it do that. Probably when I went up to 65 in first gear at about 4000 rpms.
