I realize the autoparts store in your area dislikes you.

Really? Do tell the group how you know this to be fact.

But even Kragens /
Shucks here will let you peruse there supply of hoses. Take the hose
with
you and match it to the ones on the wall.

Hmm, let's see, thousands of applications, and they aren't on the wall.
They are behind the counter, behind the wall, where parts stores have
their parts. AND, you said HAVE THEM match one. Also, molded hoses have
molded ends. You can't just go hacking it off where you want. Now, I
ask, why not buy the hose intended for the application?


Why do you insist on turning even the most basic discussions (in this case,
about a damn water hose) into arguments? Let it go already Kevin. Life
goes on.

Jim, does it startle you when Fritz follows you EVERYWHERE and attaches
his face firmly to your rectum?

Understood - I was able to find a partial piece of an existing hose to work
for one section. The one I can't find is a tight 180 degree turn... I can't
find any "stock" radiator hoses with that tight of a radius.

Oh well...

Thanks

I had the same problem. Used about 2/3rds of a hose they had to make the
bend part.

When I mentioned it was a "tough piece" to locate, I should have
mentioned
I'd already been to a few auto part stores. No luck.

Does anybody know of a site that has a good selection of molded water
hose
(radiator style)? I'm trying to locate a tough piece for my '70
Interceptor
Inboard. I found this site, but there's no specs...

idiot every time you get in a ****ing match!!!

Uh, why not get the correct hose for the application, to start with.
Secondly, the portion of the hose that connects to the fitting is
constructed differently than the *body* of the hose.


How is it constructed differently?

Good luck to you.
