Hey there!
I own a 1997 20VT in Giallo Ginestra 258. Nice to be part of the forum.
I´ve noticed that the coolant expansion tank was dry when I came back from my 3 weeks' vacation. I´ve done the pressure test on the system and I´ve notice a leak from the top of the radiator (a little crack due to rust).
So, I´ve bought the new 40mm Alu radiator and I´m going to buy new silicone coolant hoses kit (11 pieces). Does anyone have the scheme of all the cooling system where I can see the position of them all?
Anyone has had any bad experience changing all the hoses? any tips?
thank you so much
Andrea

Hi Andrea, welcome to the forum smile

You will find most of the answers to coupé-queries within this forum, in particular the workshop manual would help you out along with the extensive knowledge in the Technical and HowTo sections.

To access all of these you need to be a paid-up Club member.

Welcome Andrea, clean all the alloy fittings before fitting new hoses, check out Viper performance for hoses as they're the best quality avaiable.
