0 mikebh8 Posted March 20, 2018 Report Share Posted March 20, 2018 I was going to do that, but that section is metal for a reason, mechanical protection.I instead used a putty leak sealant which hardened became rock solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 blackvelvet Posted March 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2018 The hoses are above the exhaust, so if the car bottoms out the exhaust gets it first.I think the point is, if these pipes rot through, they will leak coolant. On a journey it could be serious.I found second hand pipes on ebay for £70, \nd they had corrosion.I fixed a porous sump with that mix you used, it worked well.
