Radiator Top Hose
« on: May 04, 2023, 17:23:22 »
My top hose has sprung a leak, and Redline Engineering tell me that they were manufactured specifically for the Ace and are no longer available.
Any ideas anyone?
All the best
Andy

Andy,
this problem was discussed in post https://www.acownersclub.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=8724.msg52014#msg52014
I guess the quickest solution is to make up a pipe using a T connector.

By the way the reference to the expansion tank in the post is not accurate. There is another post discussing the expansion tank which
states its from a mk 2 fiesta which I think is correct.

Hope you solve the leak.
