[QUOTE="mrbb, post: 141677, member: 13825"] first off I'm NO expert here,and I have never replaced that exact hose on your exact model, But it looks like both ends are not that bad to get at, might be tricky some what pending wrench/'s you have, but looks do able to me if you wanted you can get some caps and plugs to help lessen the mess as fluid drains out of hose, but there not needed, some will drain no matter what you do! as for air in system, things should self relief as you use the machine, just top system off before starting and check after running some and gravity should bled air out as things cycle thru system some food for thought thought, is, I would first start with a good de-greaser soaking and mild power wash, as its always nicer to work on a clean machine when possible plus, it will remove a lot of old grease, and be less of a fire hazard! dirt debris will be less likely to build up not having all that old fluids to stick too and last the very top hose seems to be in worse condition, I'd be thinking about replacing that one as it seems to be peeling apart on you!
