Employee was working on 350 Payhauler rock truck. Had front section of hood off & crawled back through opening to check connections at ECM. His foot knocked a #5 bleeder line & ruptured it causing hot coolant to get on the calf of his left leg. He got down from truck & rinsed with cool water & put burn cream & sterile bandage on it.
