hi all, anyone know what size the hose pipe is that joins the front coolant rail to the thermostat housing? I got a fusion fabrication coolant rail 10 years ago and not the rubber pipe that goes to the thermostat housing has got cut through by the jubilee clip. ![]() looks like the hose that was on it was not original one, its around 5 inch long, but in not sure on the internal diameter, the water rail is and below Is where it goes: ![]() and this is the coolant pipe/rail that goes round the front of the engine: ![]() any ideas if I can use a silicone pipe to do the job? I don't know the internal diameter of the hose though, the outlet on the thermostat housing is bigger then the water rail pipe. looks like the rubber pipe was stretched over it. |
