Hi folks, I was just topping up various fluids today when I noticed a bit of fresh coolant on the flywheel cover. I think it might have dripped down from the short, L-shaped piece of hose right where the coolant enters the cylinder head (c900). The clamps are rather rusted, and the hose is probably old. So I think I might as well replace it before it gets worse (hose is cheap, right?). My question is this: Do I need to drain the coolant to replace the hose at this spot? I don't want to open the clamps and have coolant pour out everywhere. Thanks, John
