Driving back from the Peninsula this afternoon and I split a heater hose doing 100km/h about 15 minutes away from home. Managed to pull over and stop almost straight away, the steam from the coolant that sprayed everywhere made it abit to hard to find the fault. While I was waiting this bloke pulls over and asked if I need a hand. I explained that I was just waiting for the steam to die down to see which hose crapped itself. Nice and easy to see, split about 25mm long on the top side of the hose. Now I use to have a small amount of tools in the back, but haven't had then in for a while. Young (well under than me) bloke had a handful of tools, cut off yucky bit and refit. Took about a liter of water. Thanked him for stopping and having some tools. I do believe in good karma, something good will go his way.
Now the hose that needs replacing is the one that has the dogleg elbow, it goes to the top fitting into the firewall.
Is this it.

Was stuffing around with the head off my snorkel just doing stuff. I dropped something down the snorkel.
Luckily I was able to retrieve the dropped item with the use of a vacuum cleaner.
That made me very happy.

Gates catalog show the two below. Which to me I think are the hoses from the joiner to the motor. What you have found could be right.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

This ^^^ is very good news. I was worried about how he may be holding up up there, it's been so bloody cold.
Great news indeed.

Good day today.
Replaced the heater hose that split earlier this week, oil and filter change on the patrol and the the boys car. Repositioned all the car clearing and servicing bits and pieces from the shed to a rack in the garage. No move walking from the driveway to the far back corner behind the house everytime I forget to bring something out. Even manage to put the security camera hard drive box in a cupboard. Really cleaned up the area and the kids can keep there smelly sport boots there too.
