Hello there.
I am posting a request for some help regarding Betty.
She is a Mazda E2200 1981 diesel, and still runs like a dream, although a grand old dame of nearly 290,000 k's.
She is our home and we still live in her, and she is an integral part of my family.
We have had some issues recently, but luckily down the years we some kept cast off spares and inherited other valuable parts to maintain her.
I have spent days scouring the internet for a top/upper radiator hose, but to no avail. She is in urgent need of this small part
I think the fitting is for the '81 and '82 models. I am unsure of the size of fittings, but shall post when I have them?


The question is of course, does anyone have one of these lying around, or able to advise where I may have better luck looking on the web or a breakers yard/dealer?
Sorry to barge in on the forum like this, but I wish you all well and thank you in advance.

 

Hi guys.

Just bumping this !

Seriously guys, any feedback or advice would be very welcome.

Cheers.

 

Hi,
Kitcar builders sometime use a convoluted radiator hose for awkward fits,
maybe you could use the same.

Many thanks for the advice G S T, we shall try that route.
