Hey all, on the way home decided to give her a spurt against a riced up civic and blew a water hose :x around the back of the block, heater hose i think, lucky he didnt see the steam quickly pulled in a side street to inspect damage and fount it to be the hose had split from the pressure.
so my question is what hoses do u guys run? and are there better quality items out there? i have the water cooled turbo so alot of pressure probably came from that and i need hoses that can stand up to that sort of pressure!
ideas, suggestions and advice are all welcome!
:D
thanks all :beer
Man al hoses are the same, unless U get silcone units which R expensive! Now when was the last time u replaced or even looked that hose? My guess is that it was probally 6 yrs old at least, would U leave yr radiator hoses on a car for that long? probally not, just get repco/supercheap units they are made by MACKAY which R good reinforced units.
Hint Hint to every1, CHECK OR REPLACE THESE HOSES EVERY 2 YRS! :beer
i regularly maintain my car, its never missed a oil or water check or even tyre air check! all hoses were new !!! thats why i was surprised at it splitting and just wated to see if there was better stuff out there.
I check all my lines and simply didnt see this one coming it hit me outta no where!!! gibby shit lol
so MACKAY stuff is the go u reckon? ill check em 2moro!
