Hi boys.
This forum has made me paranoid with my FD, but at the same time, I think it has saved me from disaster.
The paranoia has consisted of extremely frequent checks to the oil and even more, to the coolant level. Thanks to this, I realized that I was loosing coolant pretty quickly.
No problems with starts, no smell of coolant out of the exhaust, no more than the usual 1 minute of smoke on cold starts.
I thought it might be a hose. It turns out, it was.
Here's the question: the hose that is located under the throttle body, makes a 90 degree turn downwards and hooks up to something else has a pinhole.
Can anybody tell me what type of hose it is and where/if I can get one to change it? I am going to take it out, but I was wondering if anyone here can direct me the right way. I'd rather pick one up and install it instead of ordering and waiting a couple of days.
Let me know and thank you,
Giovanni

I'm sure any hose that you can find in the same diameter will work.

If you want to order an OEM Mazda part, check out this thread.

Really just because its an rx7 you can still go to the parts store, i know advance auto parts sells the hoses just take yours in to verrify the hoses thats about it.

 

That hose was ripped on my car once also. Dealer only part. Give Ray at Malloy Mazda a call. His number is in the FAQ.
