Changing cooling hoses
Last Friday, I had my first issue with the MG... Coming home from work, the engine temperature has suddenly started to get really hot, close to the overheating. 😨 I just had time to park the car at home, and seen after opening the bonnet small bubbles and vapour on the hose going from the heater valve to the heater: Of course, there was not enough liquid remaining in the radiator :s Oh c**p! 😨😨 So no choice but to change all the cooling hose, as the other ones were probably in the same state than the perished hose and could split at any time. I have ordered silicone cooling hoses from mgocspares.co.uk ( here ). Similar kits are available at Moss: Those s ilicone hoses are more resistant than the rubber ones to hardening, cracking, ageing and to chemicals. Yes, they are more expensive too! Regarding installation, no real magic trick: drain the old coolant, remove the perished hoses, fit the new silicone ones, fill in with new coolant, start the engine and
