metal mesh hose kit
Has anyone put on one of those metal web hose kits with the aluminum caps for the ends? I got one the other day, and got the upper radiator hose on, but I am not sure where to put the others, also any ideas what to put under the car for lost fluids while putting the hose covers on?
Any photos of an engine compartment with this done would be a major help.
Thanks all.

Put some cardboard or a drip pan under the spot where it'll leak. When you take off the smaller hoses, get a CLEAN bolt that is just a bit bigger than the inner diameter of the hose and push it into the hose when you take the end off. This will keep the fluids from leaking more.
