Radiator Hose Leak
I got a small puncture or crack about the size of a pencil (in thickness). It comeplely loses all the water from the system when under pressure. Its the hose from the filler (top of motor) to the radiator. Any links where I can find a replacement and preferable a silicone replacement.

THANKS

Go with OEM hoses. Call Mazdaformance, Malloy or go to www.rx7.com and get them from RP.

SAMCO hose = $70-90

OEM pre-formed hose that lasts several years = $19
