Top hose TT J-Spec

[smithn05]

Hi All

 

Trying to locate a partnumber for the top radiator hose on a 94 TT Jspec manual. I think there is a modified part - to stop the hose flattening, drooping and rubbing on the fanbelt (its this partnumber I am after).

Mine is now perilously close to the fanbelt (when cold) and my local Toyota dealer showed me the schematic which shows a thick cylindrical wrap about 3 inches long attached to the long part of the hose (I assume this was the modification??). However when he got the part in it looked identical to my original so I said I would ask the experts!!!

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Cheers

Here is the EPC diagram, if you identify which part you are wanting I'll check the part number.

Hi Nic

 

On the EPC its 16571 - and your schematic shows the thick wrap around the long side of the hose too. The one Toyota supplied (from that same schematic) is just the hose (no supporting wrap) and looks identical to the one I already have fitted.

 

Cheers for looking

Hi Nigel

 

The part number for the early model J-spec TT upper hose is 16571-46150, the centre piece doesn't have a separate part number so should be included with the hose.

 

Alternatively you could fit a metal upper rad pipe, Samco also do an upper and lower pipe kit.

I use the Samco pipes and even replaced my metal pipe with them, they dont sag like the stock part.
