Exclamation dam, coolant hose is done

ok, the main radiator coolant hose (the biggest one) seems to be leaking, i can tsee it because it seems to be under the protective foam covering part that is right after teh bend from the filler neck connection

anyone knowwhere to get the silicone replacements these days?

looks like summit no loinger sells the goodridge version?

cant find the pegasus or whatever version?

and i already emailed Thermoflex with no answert yet?

i did a search but all i got was year old group buys!!(hehehehe)

i would just go for the OEM ones unless you want some color ones. the color ones are way overpriced imo. there is nothing wrong with the OEM ones.

You'll have better luck getting Thermoflex on the phone. I forgot the guys name who handles most of their stuff, but he doesn't check email too often.

I know someone who got the Thermoflex hoses. He really liked them but said they were nothing special over the stock hoses except for the colors.

except I though the point of going silicone was because it lats longer, it does not break down like the rubber ones?
