I would replace the hose if it is leaking. There is no good repair. It shouldn’t be expensive.

I have a 1931 model a tudor that spits water and overheats. I drained the cooling system and it took 3 gallons of water to refill so I don’t think that the radiator is clogged. I am new to all of this so can I ask for your advice?

Well to start off are you running straight water or a 50/50 antifreeze mix? If you are running just water I would run some antifreeze to raise the boiling point of the water and reduce corrosion. When the engine is cold and running (right after start up if it has been sitting overnight) is the radiator spitting water? If you open the filler can you see bubbles coming out like the engine head gasket is bad and pushing exhaust into the cooling system? That could be your problem. If not you may need the carburetor tuned up or rebuilt as it can clog and force the engine to run lean and overheat. We had one in the shop a while ago and that was the problem with it. I would check those things first and get back to me. Hopefully this helps and feel free to ask more questions. I am glad to help.
