side opposite to the direction of air flow. Check for leaks and straighten bent fins
with needle-nose pliers.
7. RADIATOR HOSES
Check radiator hoses for soft, mushy feel or swelling. Also look for cracks
in hose around the clamp area. Replace defective hose.

If necessary check thermostat for markings indicating the opening temper-
ature. A thermostat marked 175
