Incommando Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Having trouble locating the hard metal hose from the water pump up to the valve cover that the rubber heater hose attaches to. Heck, not even sure what it is called ( coolant tube?) but my meager web search abilities have turned up nothing. A friends son messed her's up replacing a hose. Any help/instruction/suggestion or anything would be appreciated Is it possible this tube started with the 91 and that is why no one lists it?

Incommando Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 OOOOtay... It is called the water inlet tube. Apparently the Renix era engines used a tube that ran straight up and stopped. it is apparently no longer available. You can apparently use a '91-newer tube and either cut it to the length of the early version or leave the elbow on the newer version and shorten your rubber heater house. Another option is a barbed fitting from the hardware store. All of this info is mined from the net so I actually have no first-hand knowledge with it. One version of the newer tube: http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_water-pump-inlet-tube-(no-gasket-needed)-dorman--help_10098963-p?navigationPath=L1*14922%7CL2*15018 Write-up on using the barbed fitting: http://www.cherokeeforum.com/f2/water-pump-inlet-tube-99960/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
