Bisher war der obere Kühlerschlauch undicht. Ein neuer Schlauch soll das Problem lösen.
Until now the upper radiator hose was leaking. A new hose should solve the problem.
Als Vorbereitung habe ich zuerst den Flansch am Kühler und Motor bearbeitet. Diese hatten beide einen Gussgrat in Längsrichtung, welche sicher nicht hilfreich für eine dichte Verbindung sind. Auf dem Bild sieht man die glattgeschliffene Flansche.
As preparation I first machined the flange on the radiator and engine. These both had a casting burr in longitudinal direction, which is surely not helpful for a tight connection. On the picture you can see the smooth-ground flanges.

On the picture you can see that the old hose has a 6mm larger diameter. The old hose has probably widened too much. I thought at first.
Es brauchte viel Kraft den Schlauch zu montieren, zuviel Kraft. Um ganz sicher zu sein, dass der Schlauch auch dicht wird, habe ich zusätzlich noch Silikon zum abdichten verwendet.
It took a lot of force to mount the hose, too much force. To be sure that the hose will be tight, I used additional silicone to seal it.

Der Schlauch ist dicht. Man sieht aber auf dem Bild, dass der Schlauch nicht wirklich passt. Der Ersatzteilkatalog bringt die Lösung. Der untere Kühlerschlauch hat einen kleineren Durchmesser. Offenbar hatte ich nur die untere Kühlerschläuche gekauft. Das erklärt auch, warum die neuen Schellen zu klein waren und ich die alten wieder montieren musste. Das Problem kann mit der nächsten Teilebestellung gelöst werden.
The hose is tight. But you can see on the picture that the hose does not really fit. The spare parts catalog brings the solution. The lower radiator hose has a smaller diameter. Obviously I only bought the lower radiator hose. That explains why the new clamps were too small and I had to mount the old ones again. The problem can be solved with the next parts order.
