4A-GE MK1 Engine Radiator hose 20v conversion

Kerry Phillips · 07-02-2009, 08:35 PM

Hello Everyone.

I just made an awesome "discovery" Radiator hose # E72135CS which sells at my local Pepboys for $16.99 makes a perfect replacement-for TWO hoses!!!!

On my swap (still in progress) the bottom radiator hose matched up with the silvertop, leaving only the top hose to deal with.

Here is my procedure: On the left, the hose has about a 3" run then goes into a 90 degree up angle, then quickly goes into a 45 degree, then another 45 degree-then into a very long run. Measuring from the inside, cut hose about 10.5 inches on the long run. This makes a perfect LEFT piece that connects to the engine.

Take remaining hose, cutoff the sharp 90 degree bend-about 3" worth. Place the hose on the car's metal pipe near the firewall and right hand corner, the hose should go vertical then make a left 90 degree turn. Place the plastic filler neck piece between the two hoses.

Revive the post!

Any idea what car make/model/year that hose was for originally? My Pep Boys kinda seems to somehow lack the ability to look up parts by parts number (or doesn't have that part number) unless they can stick it with a make/model/year. Thanks.

My Pep Boys was finally able to get it on a second try. They looked it up just as part number 72135. It is a Dayco hose and is length code "E".
