Question
I have a leak in the cooling system of my 1993 3.1L Cavalier

The leak seems to be under where the air goes into the Throttle body.  

Someone told me there was a small hose under there, but my shop manual for the car doesn't show this.

Is it difficult to remove the throttle body to get at this hose?

Thanks.

Answer
Hea Thomas;

         Well  most all of the cooling lines are not that hard to replace. If it is a hose it will soon pop and leak all over so I would not put a small job like that off as if you break down on the hi-way it will cost you a min. of $55.00 for a tow and than what ever the shop will charge you being that you will now be stuck, so I would have it repaired now . Again it is not that hard to replace. OK
