W58 hose question

[Anonymous]

On the fresh water cooling system, has anyone ever replaced the short hose connecting the lower thermostat housing to the fresh water pump-bypass? The lower clamp connecting the hose to the pump seems to be inaccessible and  I don’t see how it can be done without removing the fresh water pump. My parts list shows the hose as P/N 24415.

It’s a bear to get to… even with the engine out…

We did that job on Clairebuoyant. Best way is to remove lower t-stat housing. This is either not too bad, or really bad depending on if the bolts come out or if they break off.
