Review on 🔧 Gates 23797 Coolant Hose: Efficient Engine Cooling Solutions for Every Vehicle by James Naylor

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fits Titan 2011: Belts, hoses and pulleys

I assumed it would fit my Titan based on other reviews and the hoses seem to fit 100%. This model has an upgraded drivetrain and removable hose clamps on the drivetrain so I don't have to reach behind the engine to remove the intake side when I need to replace it again. Another big difference is that the strut is a piece of sheet metal rather than a thick plastic bracket, and the new drivetrain interferes with the socket wrench, requiring a box wrench to tighten the mounting nut on the new one. I've included some photos of both sides so you can see how it compares to my original. Drained about 1 gallon of coolant from the radiator and spills were minimal. motor to get it out of the way of my wrench. The vacuum hose could not be removed, but was less of a nuisance. I ended up using a few different wrenches and finally found one to put on the yoke and pull it out of the way while lying over the motor. apart, but that's usually what happens. Fill the radiator/tank, run the engine hot with the vents set to full heat, rev a few times to 3000+ for a few seconds, fill the tank and check/fill again after a few rides .
