a colapsing hose is not a problem. it is an indication of another problem. it does not matter if a hose has a spring inside of it or not, a hose can not collapse if water is being forced through it. a hose can only collapse if the water is someplace else. usually a plugged radiator will cause all the air in the system to be compressed and the water uses that space and space created when the other hoses bloat. a liquid can not be compressed so if a radiator has sufficient volume and the core is clear then the pressure at the inlet of the radiator will be the same as that at the outlet and thus the hose can not colapse. hawkrod |
