Hey guys I was just wondering if there is a seal where the coolant hose connects to the elbow out of the engine.

As u can see its leaking from that connection I'm not sure if there is seals in there or not. It's leaking decent thanks

Your picture is the inlet to water pump, not a heater connection. But yes, all the quick connect style lines with the wire clip have an oring inside the plastic connection.

Are you talking about the larger radiator tube? If so you just pull the metal clip on it and then pull on the hose and it will come right off.

Yes there is an updated lower radiator hose with double o-rings so it won't leak

Just to clarify the hose connects to this one. My friend works at aford dealership so he can order anything I want.

Make sure you drain the coolant before unless you want a coolant shower. Pull metal clip out (a screwdriver may be needed to pry it out. Once the clip is out, just pull to separate.

Both radiator hoses were updated to a double o-ring style. If you are doing one, make sure you change both.

You should probably take a real close look at the lower corners of your radiator too... just to make sure you don't have multiple issues. I had 3 coolant leaks all at the same time.
