Rad leaks
 

so my rad leaks like mad...
gona get new upper and lower rad hoses, and replace hose clamps...
my lower hose looks longer than it should be should i make it a more direct path??

What's leaking, the rad or the hoses?

The lower hose it curved the way it is to avoid rubbing in a couple spots... I believe it is more of an issue with GTEs though. If you want to try a more direct hose I believe the hose from MKII Supras is a direct fit; although there's really no benefit to it.

cant tell if it is upper or lower hose but you can see currosion, under them and a spot that is always slightly damp, (obviously where it keeps dripping)
and i now i t wont help to make it preform in any way making it shorter i just dont wanna measure the hose, so if it was smaller it wouldnt matter.

also noticed my rad light is always on, ive never over heated or heated up faster than normal so im not concerned, assuming its low levels seeing as i am filling it a lil once a week

The low coolant light's sensor is in the coolant overflow/reservoir. If that empties then you'll get that light; Naturally, it will keep emptying if you've got a coolant leak somewhere in the system.

thanks ill fill the reservoir/ overflow, didnt think the sensor would be in there...

Yeah, not the greatest place as it requires the cooling system to cool down enough to suck from the reservoir before you know it's low.


What I wish we had was an oil level sensor.... I've thought about adding one.

that would be fantastic, considering my oil sensor is my noes atm.

I think the 1JZ-GTE had one... not positive. Yeah, it'd be nice, but I'd still be checking my oil constantly; I'm just paranoid about that.
