Help Needed

[Roadwarrior50]

Well i went to try to fix the radiator resevoir in my car and managed to get the old one out after alot of fussing. But my problem is that the hoses are pretty much just long enough to connect to things and i cant get them hooked back up to the resevoir. The walkthrough i have says to disconnect the hose at the firewall but all the breaklines are in the way so its just disconnected at the bottom of the resevoir. Does anyone have any idea's before i end up towing this thing to the dealership?

I had similar issues. I elected to take the cutting wheel to the access hole inside of the fender to allow more room to be able to connect the hose to the bottom of the coolant reservoir. Some tricks you can try to get the hose on include heating the hose up a little or adding a little lube.

Some of the hoses on this car are in the hardest freaking spots to reach.
