Subject:Coolant Hose Size for Heater?
From:James Wagner
Date:Sat, 9 Jan 1999 14:50:42 -0500

Hello All,

I am having a problem with finding the correct coolant hose for my 85
Vanangon.  The hose connecting the right cylinder head and the heater
has a 5/8 inch ID attachment at the T-fitting for the rear heater, but a
1 inch ID attachment at the cylinder head.  The last hose was forced
onto the cylinder head such that it split and eventually leaked.  At
this point I am planning to use a large diameter hose and make some kind
of adapter for the T fitting. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Is this a mix up of different model year equipment?

Thanks for the help,
James Wagner
