OK, caught with my pants down... after I got the '92 245 3 summers ago, I replaced the major coolant hoses... EXCEPT the 2 at the back of the cylinder head, the real PITA ones to reach. One let go tonight, fortunately near home. It's the upper one which has a molded S-curve - which means it's not a part typically available at the local Auto Zone or Pep Boys. fcpgroton has them, but that's a couple of days away. Any suggestions for a workaround? I'm thinking of copper elbows and short pieces of heater hose, but before I set out on such a quest I'm wondering if anyone has definitive experience with this repair.
