Subject: water bypass hose
IP: Logged

Message:
Changed the water pump in my dakota (That clutch fan was a nightmare). Unfortunately, I think I screwed the water bypass hose. Anyone have any tips to share about changed the bypass hose? It looks like I'll have to remove the A/C compressor and I'm not looking forward to it. Thanks much

A/C and braket they real hide that hose and its
a pain to replace it.

The clutch fan simply unscrews from the pump shaft
and the pully remains because its presed on

With the AC barcket off, you can get to the hose. You can attach the pump end and bend the hose in the middle with a screwdriver to clear the manifold end and slip it on. Good luck.

Thanks much, I ended up taking the AC, and whole bracket assembly off. It was a piece of cake with all that pesky engine stuff out of the way. :) 'preciate the replies.
