Help to identify a leaky hose please.

Post by mikelamb » Sun Jul 20, 2008 7:43 pm

Just lifted the drivers seat and noticed a hose has baddly worn and started to leak. It's the hose that comes from the top of the engine and runs down to a steel pipe, that connects to another rubber hose that goes to the rad. Can anyone help me to source the correct hose to replace this one.
One more thing before I go, can the cam belt be done from the inside the cab or do you have to get under the van? The fact sheet does not mention getting underneath, I have a 95 2.5d.
Thanks,
Mike.

Send a PM to flippa re hoses - he does replacement silicon ones.
Sorry, no idea re cambelt, but I'm sure it won't be long before somebody else posts :D

cambelt can be done from inside but its hard to get to turn the crank without getting under.limited access from inside, expect a few scraped knuckles unless you have slim hands not shovels like me.

Check all your other hoses thoroughly & consider if it's worth replacing them all while your at it, if ones going - they're all the same age after all.
You can't polish a turd - but you can roll it in glitter.
