the car (http://zilvia.net/f/chat/184291-s13-sr23-build-almost-finish-3.html#) is running again and i will be getting my power fc put in, in a couple of weeks. just 2 minor problems.

1. i have a coolent leak and i think i know where it is. i just have to get my car back into my garage (http://zilvia.net/f/chat/184291-s13-sr23-build-almost-finish-3.html#) to look. i believe it is the fat coolent line that is behind the head right next to the coolent return line. if that is it, who has replaced that hose and how much of a bitch is it to do?? what did you have to do to replace it?

2. my battery is dead so i had to jump it with my "ULTIMATE ALTIMA" and after i let it run still hooked up to the car i took the cables off and it slowly dead. why isnt the alternater keeping it running. its a brand new ka alternater??

did you check the little wire attached to alt. by a small bolt. that could cause your malfuction
just my .02 cents

after reading i checked the wire and its fine. the plug on it was not all the way down it went down about half and inch. so ill try that once i get a chance. i didnt have my jumper cables with me.

has anyone tried to replace that hose??
