Title: 24 valve Rad Top Hose
Post by Nunnspoet on May 26th, 2016, 9:56am
Has anybody got one of the above?  It's the thick hose that runs from the top of the Rad under the Ignition Module and into the engine.

Fords ain't got them so I am stuck  :'(

Try Merlin Motorsport - they do a range of silicone hoses made by Samco, might have something to get you sorted.
Samco make a full set for the Granada BOA 24v engine - maybe a slim chance the hose you need is the same and available separately ?

Thanks mate.

They sent me photos of the BOA engine coolant hoses but they are not compatible. So its back to where I started;  Anyone got one  ::)?

In hopes

A Google search produced a few firms. Try This one (http://www.classicsiliconehoses.com/) for example. ;)

Amazing service but no help!. I tried to ring but no answer. Lady rang me back and says they do nothing after 1980 for many reasons. :-[

Of course, you could always make a hose up by using silicon hose + connectors:-

Thank you very much amigafan.   :).

I will place an order today. I am a bit puzzled as the price quoted is in euros, so how do I pay them?  I bet you know?  The other sites you give look most interesting as well.

Matt, I think I got mixed up regarding your Top hose info.  I should always drink my first mug of tea in the morning before consulting the Brain  ::).  Ah well

Keep Scorpying

On the website I linked with the top hose, there is a currency selector dropdown so you can select gbp when paying.

If they are proving hard to get hold of I might just get one myself as a spare!
