Hello All,
One of the cooler lines from the trans to radiator is leaking slightly. I plan on replacing both, but understand it's a real PIA, and could take hours.
Because of that, and because I live in NH and would have to do it "in the wild" (my driveway), I am thinking I can temporarily just run rubber trans hoses, using compression fittings and barbs until warmer weather comes? They aren't high pressure lines, are they?
Thanks for any input!
Edit - to clarify, I would only be cutting out the leaking section, and cutting back the steel line to a spot that's clean but still accessible, then using the hose/line to replace the cutout section.
