Hi All!
 

Rivals from Ireland just saying 'Hello' and looking for help! I will be looking at a converted CVE Omnibus, but the top radiator hose is missing. Does anyone know the internal diameter of this hose and also does anyone know the length. I won't purchase unless I can drive it .... URGENT!!!

A very warm welcome from the sunny Isle of Anglesey, Rivals.

Can you not put a convoluted hose on as temprary for the time being?

Welcome to Truck and Bus Forum, Rivals.

If you search this site there was someone offering spares from an Omni that he was breaking.

Thank you for your remarkably prompt response! I would never have thought of a convoluted hose .... As you have probably gathered, I have very little mechanical expertise! Greatly appreciate your help and advice 'Coastie' and 'G-CPTN'.
Regards
Rivals

Rivals, even though I was once trained as a "semi skilled car mechanic" I don't think that I would have thought of such a thing except that over 20 years ago, I had to redesign the cooling system on my Vauxhall FE VX 4/90 when I added a radiator from a Citroen CX 2.400 and a header tank from a MK IV Ford Zephyr V6! A bit Heath Robinson, but it stopped it from overheating and it was only possible by using that tubing which a local car accessory shop (St Christophers, Holyhead) told me about.:)
