Radiator Hoses
« on: 30 April, 2018, 08:45:23 PM »
Can anyone suggest an alternative for the Lower Bypass hose that connects below the water pipe and the front rail on the Flavia 1800 engine. I think the part number is 82161114. I have tried using standard 28mm ID EPDM rubber hose, but the offset between the 2 pipe ends is such that it causes too much of a kink in the pipe. The original pipe has a bit of an S bend in it.

It is the pipe (item 5) indicated in the diagram below.

Previous cars:
1983 Prisma 1600
1991 Thema 16v i.e. SE
1988 Thema 8v Turbo
1992 Thema 16v i.e.
1983 Gamma Coupe (manual)
1993 Thema VIS
1994 Thema VIS LE
1990 Thema 2.8
