Flexible radiator hose

ttoli

Hi I cant find replacement rad hoses for my car (1994 Nissan Sunny), but have seen flexible rad hose on ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/38mm-1-1-2-FLEXIBLE-EPDM-RUBBER-RADIATOR-COOLANT-HOSE-/310306097660#shpCntId

Is this okay to use ?

Thanks

For any car of that age, I would try a local scrappy first, they may let you loose with the spanners, or may even take it off for you, and it will only be a couple of quid.

The stuff i have seen was not brilliant quality. OK for a temporary repair but not a long lasting one.

Plenty of hoses on ebay, New and used.

Silicone ones for £40 or less.

This any good, £13.50 delivered

There is a link in the listing to view all the available sizes, Halfords used to stock a range of these but nothing showing on their web site.

Take the old hose to your local motor factors and they should be able to match it up to something off another vehicle. Failing that take it to a scrappy and find one similar.

The OP is in Cyrpus so might be a bit harder to find one that'll ship



unless their location is lying to me.

any coolant hose the same diameter and length will do.
