Hoses VS Belts.

**GTPRiley** · 01-04-2009

So today I woke up to find my car with a huge and I do mean HUGE puddle of coolant under it. turns out that the hose from the reservoir to the radiator got into a small tiff with the belt system and the belt won severely. Once again it leads me to believe that if Im not adding go fast parts to my car well then working on cars sucks!!!!

Same thing happened to my GTP. Those belts are mean lol.

yeah the hose had no chance

I've had that happen about three times that I can remember. I blame the massive amount of power

**GTPRiley** · 01-04-2009

lol yeah Ill blame it on that too

From the first day I had my GTP I was concerned about that, so I loosely zip tied mine to the little post that sticks up there in front of the battery.

When I get around to putting the car back together I'll run that sucker a bit longer so it has less of a tendency to go visit the belts.

Yeah I zip tied it all down today after I fixed it.

If you still have your old hose, you can cut a section of it, cut a slit in it and zip tie it around your new hose so if your other ties happen to pop lose, you will have some extra protection there.
