Hello! I have a 2003 Toyota Celica GT, 1.8L 1ZZ-FE engine and my radiator finally gave out. I’m doing a complete cooling system refresh where I’m changing out the radiator, thermostat, and upper and lower hoses.

Does anyone know how to change the radiator hose that’s next to the battery going into the engine? I think that’s the upper hose.

It’s in a weird spot and I’m not sure I can reach the clamp with pliers. I know to remove the battery for more space, but I’m not sure if I need to move anything else out of the way to make it easier.

Thanks!
