Quick Connect Fitings
Thanks for the PDF of the quick connect fitting tool.
I had trouble with the quick connects to the radiator tank when changing the water pump in our 2002. The quick connect was brittle form heat and broke while i was attempting to remove it. Had to make temporary repairs until I could get to the dealer for a replacemnt tube. The tool looks similar to the Ford fuel line retaining clips. I'll have to bring a couple home from the shop to try.
I have found a trmendous amount of good information just browsing this evening.
Thanks again - this is a great forum.

Breaking radiator hose connectors
I thought nothing of the frequent warnings I saw about these quick connect connections breaking until when replacing the thermostat I broke the top one off.. the one that feeds from the radiator to the top of the fluid top up bottle. I stressed about it, found my Jaguar dealer parts centre was shut (Sat afternoon) and went to Halfords. I brought two jubilee clips and got an offcut of hose next size up from the outside diameter of the special connectors for free. I ran a straight length from point to point, jubilee clipped both ends and it works a treat - only downside is it may get in the way of spark plug removal when the time comes. Wife thought I was mad.. but hey it works and is quite neat (all things considered :-))
