Repaired blown radiator hose with insulating tape | Fitting new hose.

The amazing power of insulating tape. Surprisingly not the first time I have used it to dodge a blown hose on the side of the road. Pro tip: the stretchy stuff works better. . . . . #jeepgrandcherokee #v8 #landrover #jeepcheroke #offroadadventure #breakdown #bodgejob #cowboymechanic #jeep #mechanicfail #4×4

For rubber hose repair, use Self Amalgamating Tape.
It's a permanent repair.

I've even successfully used it on a blown brake hose, though I wouldn't recommend doing so.
Gentle braking if you do!!
