Title: Thermostat bypass hose
Post by bizzay1 on Jul 30^th, 2008, 1:08pm

Part Number 7334646 - that horrible one that goes from the thermostat up through the head casting and connect between the V of the engine & 2x 1006844 inlet manifold gaskets, none are available from Fords so has anyone any suggestions ??

bizzay.
The gaskets are simple to make,obtain a suitable material,lay it on the manifold and tap around with a light hammer,trim up with scissors.The hose was still available recently.It has differing end diameters as you may have realised,and would be tricky,but not impossible to replicate.
