This is the 1993 Town car heater hose replacement discussion;

Hose question

Coolant leak in hose behind water pump. I can sort of see/feel it but not enough to replace it…Pulled water pump as I’m replacing both, but I still can’t get to the hose. Do I need to pull the intake manifold to get to the hose? If so, do I need any special tools? Never pulled an intake.
