[DeTomaso] simple Techno Question: the heater hoses

   That, actually looks brilliant.
   The last time I replaced the heater hoses, I used Gates Green stripe.
   I think I got it from Wilkinson the first time, and ebay the last
   time.  It's hard to get in small lengths... like those shorter than
   50'.  I didn't bother with any right-angles in hoses, but the again...
   I don't recall the -old- hoses I took off having any right-angles in
   them, so I  had no idea.
   That part looks like just the ticket.  I may have to pick up a couple
   just to keep on the shelf.

   Dear Forum,



                    A fellow Pantera owner had a clever solution to the
   right angle heater hose.    Please see his note and pictures.




         "Instead of using a preformed hose (that is probably not long
   enough to attach at the other end) I used brand new 5/8" heater hose
   and the anti-collapse coil in the picture. I don't know - - been 7
   years or more without an issue.  Makes the transition and provides
   abrasive protection in a place where things are close."



                               Warmest regards,  Chuck Engles



   PS:  the local NAPA *did* actually have the right angle hoses on the
   shelf for about $13 each.   They lads claimed that the NAPA hose is
   made by Gates, for what that is worth.  They are shorter that I
   thought, but I expect to join them to the shut off valves.  I * think*
   that it will work.
