Best Way To Remove Hose

Getting that bleed screw back in was a major pain in the a*s. The next time I'm going to try loosening it till it leaks instead of taking it out.


And if I was smarter I'd have put a new crush washer on the water pump drain plug the first time I put it back in so I wouldn't have to see seepage from it this morning and make another coolant mess.
 
Put a bit of gasket goo around the threads of the bolt, near the head, and then put it back in. The leak will be gone.

New or not I add hylomar to the washer face anyway to make sure it is sealed. Permatex brand works well also.
