Hi Rknight!,
It's me from knightregistries.com. I don't think I can help you, but rest assured, these people are very helpful. I'm getting ready to get a knightonline fose, from Erick Llaguno for $450, finished!!! BTW, how's Karr? Thanks,
Matt S.

 

where were u squeezing it at?? they will usualy be able to be squeezed even when the thermostat is open. is it just a regular black radiator hose?? is it any different when its cold?? thats kinda weird for it to be ROCK hard..
