Coolant hose

Post by JonathanR »

I would like to replace this. And repair bodywork. Can't match the part can anyone give me a link?

If I replace it will I have to bleed the cooling system or am I lucky!Image

It is just standard 7mm id cotton overbraided rubber hose comes on a reel you just buy the length you need available from most car accessory shops.

I doubt it.
It is the bleed ring after all.

Thanks
Have to admit I am still confused by all the pipes, also some trepidation with trip coming up and deciding what spare hoses to take. Ultimately I will replace all that look manky but identifying each one even using Brikwerks diagram is proving a bit of a bgr.

I have some Harris pipe repair tape and gaffer tape in my tool kit just in case any should split (it happened once and the gaffer tape got me home).
