Re: slimy heater hoses

[Dan McCormack <mcwheels@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sean, I've noticed the same thing happens on my cars when I have them stored 
in a cold garage for the winter. I'm not sure what it is, antifreeze, 
condensation,  oils seeping out of the hoses?????  It all disappears once I 
start driving them again. I get it on the radiator hoses sometimes too.
