Hose leaking
Hi,
When I was driving I heard a pop and a sudden smoke coming in, engine become hot and coolant was low.
Then I discovered that the hose (next to the battery) was completely cut in 2, I'm not sure how it was before, but If put coolant it will go there and all leak from there.
Should it be o one hose only part ? Or should I stick the 2 part together, I don't know why there is 2 clamp there.
Thank you

If it's plastic then get some channel locks and rip it out, or use them to crush the hose and pull out the pieces.
Or just buy new hoses.
Or chop out the section that has the connectors in it and frankenstein the whole thing back together with a couple of short hose sections, plastic couplings, and hose clamps Depends on how much time and money you can invest into it at the moment.
