Title: Right angled Coolant Hose removal (24 valve)
Post by Nunnspoet on Jul 15^th, 2016, 8:23am

I need to take the above off one Cossie and put it onto the other one of my Scorpios. Has anyone done this job who can advise me of the best way to do it without removing the ac pump?

Stumped

Mike

:D ;D.

Job done! And many many thanks to "Top Boss" in Derby, and special thanks to Chris for all his help and concern in making sure that I received the correct Coolant Hose. They made up 2 for me: 1 for Gemmima Puddle Duck (I have renamed her with regard to the flood she went through Christmas time and now for blowing the Top Hose, followed by the Thermostat to Water Pump Hose when we were was just about to set home from Truro). And thanks to whoever it was that suggested them on this Forum :-*

The only way to access this right angled hose is to remove the ac Pump and it's bracket, then it is easy. Luckily I don't have to refit the above as we do not like air con.. 8).

Happy days folks as I feel confident that "Top Boss" can sort hoses out for us; also, chatting with Chris I would say they can sort out Electric Loom problems as well. It is a two man business and they care.

Suppose I should mention here that I have no commercial interest them other than as a very happy customer.

Nice sunny morning: Think I'll go for a drive ;)
