having brain fog, 59ab, thermostats, spring towards head or hose??? thanks mike
 
Towards the heads here in the Northern Hemisphere--might be different down there;-)
 
I run an 8ba now. but when i was running a ab i had trouble keeping the stats. in place. Every time i took the hose off the stat. was up in the hose. How do you guys keep them down on the head?



Bill
 
Position the hose clip as close to the top as possible to ensure crimp on the stats edge. Old saggy hoses are a problem...have you got a saggy hose? ;-(
 
Perhaps a does of viagra in the radiator will firm them hoses up!

I used new flex hoses as running the 34 rad and useing a 59ab motor the old hoses would not work.. I don't have this problem any more now that i run the 8ba but i might incounter this problem again sometime. The 59ab is on the engine stand and might some day get a complete overhaul for a future project.



Thanks Bill
