75 Turbo bottom hose Non PRT
Can't seem to find a replacement hose. It's non PRT and runs from the bottom of the radiator to the metal pipe going to the thermostat.
Anyone know where I could source one? Chris

Anyone breaking a non PRT turbo?
Surely there must be a hose somewhere?

It was a bad move by Rimmer/Xpart to delete all part numbers from their website for stuff they no longer stock. It prevents you looking elsewhere for old stocks that almost certainly exist. They shot themselves in the foot I reckon because some 75/ZTs will get scrapped because of it. A simple 'NLA' would have sufficed.

Try here for FLEXIBLE car coolant system hoses. I've used flexible hoses in the past ( Not from this company ) and they work just as well as the OEM part.--- Simply cut and bend to fit. They come in a variety of diameters. |

Thanks for the suggestions everyone, it looks like I'll have to try and fabricate one somehow.
Never thought it would be a radiator hose that makes me think of getting rid after 16 years of ownership! Chris

There was a thread recently where a member posted a link to a European (?) website that provides MGR Part Numbers. Problem is, I can't find it.
Anyone remember? TC |
