What should be cost for changing out oil cooler hoses?
"Remove the clamps and use the fingers to loosen the hose around the
barb. Most any place that sells tools will have the finger tools,
that's what I call 'em maybe hose removal tool would be a good name."

valves you can find and the road side block drain. Remove the clamps
and use the fingers to loosen the hose around the barb. Most any
place that sells tools will have the finger tools, that's what I
call 'em maybe hose removal tool would be a good name. I use them
constantly when doing maintenance work. Just a hook like thingy with
a screw driver like handle. Use the "lined" type clamps exclusively
on your bird, you won't be happy if you let shops work on your bus,
most worker bees in truck shops hate buses. You really need to be
comfortable with fuel filter changing techniques. It will be a
required skill. If you don't have an electric pusher fuel pump back
by the rear axle, you should install one very soon.
