Hi folks, not run the z31 for a while and thought I'd fire it up, after it got up to temp I had water/steam spraying from the join between the hose that comes out the lower part of the rad and the metal pipe that runs up behind the belts.

I've had a look once it cooled down and don't actually see any split in the hose but may well be out of sight at the rear. I've attempted to remove it to have a look but resorted to just soaking the clips with lube for the time being as the heads were very soft on the screws and instantly started to chew, I'll leave that overnight and have another go tomorrow.

What does look like a pain in the ass though is the metal piece, its held in place by a bracket but I'm struggling to see where the securing bolt(s) are for said bracket - anyone give me any pointers please?
