Hi guys,
I was working with a friend of mine replacing the timing belt, water pump, valve cover seal, and thermostat on my 86 LX today.
Got the timing belt, water pump, and valve cover seals all done without any problems, But when I went to take off the thermostat housing cap the lower bolt on the housing snapped.
So now I have a bolt in the housing with no head on it, so I can't reattach the upper radiator hose to the thermostat housing.
I have a very temporary fix (vice-grips holding it together), but how do I get that housing off of the engine with those metal hoses right in the way so I can take it to a machine shop?
Any help would be great!
Thanks!
