Hey.
Anyone know where I can get these from locally? Or is it another glad wrap, electrical tape wait ages and order it from Camskill???
Don't want a repeat of being pulled over on the side of the freeway looking like a dick.
Thanks

Re: Radiator hoses
Hmm not sure I want to get second hand hoses! I was stuck on busy busy arse freeway which was not moving with no emergency lane as they were going road works.
Ended up mounting the curb and I was on the grass. Leak was coming from the lower hose. Ended up pouring all the water from my overflow into the radiator which did nothing. I only had a sick pack of beer in the car and I was no sh*t about to poor a couple of bottles in. Ended up walking up the freeway and thank god I managed to get some milk cartons and filled them with water!
I also used me bloody footy scarf to open up the radiator cap!
Does the FTO have a low coolant level warning light? Think it should hahaha.

Re: Radiator hoses
How good condition Bennoz? Could be an option or looks like a Camskill order which is a big joke when you think about it.Bennoz wrote:I might too...

Re: Radiator hoses
There was nothing wrong with them mate, as above, they were ditched in favour of the Samco ones. You can have them for nothing + postage.
