NOTE:
Often  fluids  such   as oil,  power   steering  fluid,
and  brake  fluid  are  used   during  assem bly  plant  opera-
tions  to ease  the  assem bly of  hoses  to couplings.   There-
fore,  oil wetness   at the  hose-cou pling  area  is  not  neces-
sarily  an  ind ication  of  leakage.  Actu al  dripping   of  hot
fluid  when   system s are  und er  pressu re (during   vehicle
operation)  shou ld  be noted  before  hose is rep laced based
on leakage.

chanical  damage.  Hard  and brittle  rubber,  cracking,  tears,

tion of the  rubber.  Particu lar attention   shou ld be made  to
exam ining   those   hose   surfaces   nearest   to   high   heat
sou rces, such  as the  exhau st manifold  .
