Using this Pusher Upper Coolant Tube is straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is the right model - it fits 2011+ Ford F - Series with 6.7L Powerstroke. If your truck is from 2017 or newer, check if it has a dual - hose setup as described. Then, remove the old OEM rubber hose and plastic parts. Install the new tube assembly, using the included heavy - duty silicone couplers and T - bolt clamps. Make sure to attach the X - ring properly. As for maintenance, regularly check the clamps for tightness and the tube for any signs of damage. Clean the tube with a mild automotive cleaner if it gets dirty. This product is built to last, but proper care will ensure its long - term performance.
