kfguy Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Hi, hoping for some info regarding the cooling system on an 86' cs200 midliner... In front of the fuel filters , there is a metal" can" that is part of the cooling system.. on the metal pipe coming out of this ''canister'' there is a flexible hose section about 4 inches high that is used as a coupling union... it looks to be a piece of "radiator hose?" held on with 2 hose clamps.. I don't know what it is there for but it is starting to wear and crack and now antifreeze is beginning to leak... I am wondering what the best way is to replace this and what to use to replace it..{ 2-1/4'' radiator hose looks about right}.. am wondering how much coolant loss to expect {if not all?} and how to go about refilling cooling system and bleeding it properly.. any help would be much appreciated. Thank you Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/40031-midliner-cs200-cooling-system-help-needed/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbigrig Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 It's the oil cooler. Drain your cooling system and replace the hose. Most of those hoses are metric so try to find something as close as possible and away you go. Bleeding the system won't be a big deal.
