As far as pulling the lower hose, do I need to get under the car simular to changing the oil or can I get if from the top.

This weekend, I'll replace the sensor and reinstall the new reservior.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Has anyone ever installed a new water reservior? I started last night and got stuck so before I went too far and made a mess of something, I though it would be best to ask for assistance.
(1) A Step by Step on how do get the reservior out would be helpful
(2) What to look out for...
(3) What's the best way to drain the out of the reservior antifreeze
(4) Can/Should I reuse the old antifreeze
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
SEARCH THERES A BUNCH
NOTHING REALLY
PULL THE LOWER HOSE TO THE RESIVOR
I WOULDNT
PULL THE AIR BOX
PULL THE AIR PUMP
PULL THE FUEL FILTER
PULL THE FUEL LINES IF ITS A 99-01
PULL THE TEMP SENSOR
PULL THE TANK
WHAT YEARS YOUR CAR
NEW CARS ITS WAY EASIER IF YOU UNDO THE ENGINE MOUNTS AND LOWER THE ENGINE
It's a 99. Thanks. I got as far as Step 2 (the air pump). Will these parts come out fairly easily / smoothly? As far as pulling the lower hose, do I need to get under the car simular to changing the oil or can I get if from the top. The reason I ask is because I don't want to pull the wrong hose and have everything spilling all over the place...
There must be a rash of these.
Im doing the same this weekend.
Go to Renntech.org and there is a DIY with pictures and LOTS of threads on this....
even i have one :-)
Man... to say this is a job is an understatement. Last night after about 3 hours I drained all of the fluids and got the old reservior out. Unfortunately, I cracked the sensor during my first few attempts to reinstall the new one. This weekend, I'll replace the sensor and reinstall the new reservior. Hopefully it won't take the same amount of time. FYI...The DIY info on Rentech was very helpful.
