icon5.gif  18rg Top Radiator Hose? Sun, 23 November 2003 08:29 Go to next message
I have an ra23 powered by 18rg... And also water propulsion Sad
In the past 12 months it's managed to split two of those crappy flexi "one size fits all" radiator hoses. Both times i've at least smelt the coolant and not suffered any carnage.

But my question is - where in BRISBANE can i get a real upper radiator hose that will fit the RG? or get one mailed from?

In looking at pics of other retro-fitted 18rg's on the web i've seen what looks like factory-style upper hoses. The closest fit i've been able to find is off a 90? magna, but that is still very ordinary...

That'll teach me to turf the original hoses when i swapped engines, even if they did fall apart in my hands...
Glad i didn't admit how frustrated i was becoming with this... Rolling Eyes

Thanks guys!
