Anyone know where I can get the heater hose in the picture (the curly one from the heater core)? I bought one from MazdaTrix several years ago, but they no longer list it. I have the Mazda part number, so will try calling them tomorrow or Friday, but if they don't carry it, where can I get one? I've tried AutoZone, RockAuto.com, and O'Reilly's.

Thanks,
Rich

 

dealer/mazdatix 8871-61-212A?

if its NLA, the FC has one thats similar but longer, should be something like FB01-61-212B

 

Rich,

You can take the hose off and take it to your local Napa Auto and see if you can match it.

 

http://mazdatrix.com/bhose1b.htm the 48/85 one looks close.

 

Hey Rich - this may be fair warning to get the LONG one to the engine block too! unique to the SA cars and a bit funky in shape-

I just used generic goodyear heater hose from Azone and cut em up to work.
You have to give them a bit more length to make the bends but its a lot cheaper.

 

the small one on the right side i got from napa as a direct fir for around $9. the larger hose i bought from mazdatrix for $27 for the 12A and close to $50 for the 13B from an SE. in fact, i have the long hose for a 12A right here..never brought it to the garage. it has a part number of N231-15-550
