Size of rubber hose for the heater please.
« on: May 26, 2018, 17:27:23 »
Does anyone know the size of the rubber hose that runs from the side of the 230 engine up to the bulkhead, it feeds the heater.  it looks around 1inch ID.  i need to replace it.

Many thanks.

Paul.

Inch? I am shocked Paul,  :o  ;)  everything is metric on our cars.
The OD is about 1 inch, or to be exact: ID 18mm - OD 25mm
