VERY COOL Thank you

Awesome video you've been a great help great job thanks 👍

Once it’s heated and clamped, dip it in cold water for 1 minute and you’re done. You’re welcome

An alternative is to clamp the hose in the shape you need and soak in hot water for some time.

I've seen people pack PVC tubing with warm sand in order to bend it without kinking, I imagine it could work for rubber too

You can’t re-mold rubber. Raw rubber remembers every thing that done to it and you cannot re-shape it by any method.

Good idea. Especially the over bending to compensate for kinking when hot water in pipe. Gaz UK

Do not do this with pressure hoses. Thermoset rubber does not hold its strength when it is re-heated to its melt-phase. Parts of the rubber will become microcracked and will fail much faster than an original molding. It is only the braid material which then holds the hose together. This might be a good "temporary" fix, but not meant for a long-term replacement. Water hoses and vacuum hoses will be OK with this, where the pressures are only at one-baro, but for Gods sake, do NOT do this on brake lines. GM engineer.

Great job! Salute from Cary

Make a simple fixture to hold the hose the way you want it so you don't have to hold it and you cant let it cool in the fixture. Chuck of plywood and some nails will do it.

I change mine every 3000km.

They are external springs for copper pipe. If you are goi g to use them internally, tie some copper cable to the far end and feed it back through the centre amd pull it out usimg that. Otherwise kt doesnt take long to ruin your spring.

I have that same headlight. Do they have a new version that charges with USB-C instead of Micro USB?

Has anyone tried this technique or any other with silicone hose?

Kudos at 9:25 I also like to include learning mistakes in my videos when possible. It may not make me look like a genius but it seems like it would be more helpful to the audience. BTW I use a welding table Ill make a video soon and show you what Im talking about.

Kudos to you Sir !

I fill the rubber tubing with sand when heating/ shaping

I enjoyed seeing how you did this and I have needed to know this for many years but for some reason I never tried this and from this time onward I will know how to do it. Great Job~!!! Subscribed and liked~

I think you've got your moneys worth out of your gloves! 👍

At the beginning he’s says the key word. It “weakens” the hose. Don’t do this!

can this method be used on oil resistant hose..ie transmission hose? I plan to remake some bent pcv hoses. Regular heater hose for coolant seems obvious.

Oil is cheap and engine is expensive. People always told me not to be cheap when fixing car. That is why I buy engine and not oil. My car very good. I get new engine every 3 year. Very good and fast. -Boris

Great work!

Just fill the hose with fine grit sand instead of using a spring.

Try this work light in an engine bay instead of that wearable headlamp and you will be Snoopy dancing on his doghouse I promise. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHTdhJyNo5mqj5I

I change my oil every 5 miles or 24 hours (whichever comes first). If you change your oil any less frequent, you're just asking for problems.

handy tip. The best tip is at the end, to "overbend" the hose so it will settle to where you want

Very good idea! Never would have thought of it. Thanks!

People DON'T change oil at 5000? Why? 5k is the highest I would go.

Very cool!

And weaken them at the same time

Great Idea

This is certainly something I may try in the future if I am unable to find a replacement formed hose for one of my older vehicles. Thanks for sharing.

Nice idea bro..frm philippines

👍👍👍. Thank you

👍👍👍. Thank you

Now the important problem. will those PEX stretchers work to make a hose with two different sizes on the end? Sadly I haven't seen 1/4inch pex......

I use sand...then just pour it out

YEP! you're right!

I remember when I visited my grandmother in Pensacola, Florida and she dropped some serious wisdom on me. She said “Grandson, one day some people will waste their time reading your comment.” Today is that day.

I do it 3K miles with penzoil full synthetic

Thanks COOP ...

do or have u used seafoam? and i would love to see what would happen if u do do the "seafoam added result"

Ok. I don't know the "butter" temperature one would need, but I have conjured up some tweaks for your mousetrap that may result in a smoother more uniform part using the same materials. -make a jig on the bench -stuff hose full of sand and tamp it down -bury hose in a box of sand -heat in oven at (magic) temp for (enough) minutes -pluck hose place in jig (leaving sand inside) -maybe dump hot sand on it -let it cool overnight There! I just wrote your next script! (btw, thank you BTW, for explaining how the real thing is done. Love to learn.) Thanks, mans!

You will have less flow due to the restricted diameter.

I do 5k miles or 1 year, whichever comes first. Mostly M1 0w40 Euro on all our cars

Wow, I just realized that I've somehow acquired the ability to predict that a presenter is going to speak English like they have a mouth full of marbles just by looking at them. I literally heard this guys voice in my head before I "clicked" play......no joke. I'm kinda freaking out right now. Good information presented.

Way too much of the front extensions out to begin with. About 6 holes if what you need for the system to function more reliably. Lippert's Ground Control 3 is very flakey. You should re-zero the system as well.

👍

Very cool video man. Saving this to my how-to playlist. Subscribed 👍🙏
