Re: Alternator pulley causes hose woes
i wouldnt advise corrugated hose...metal to metal on the cooling system is not good unless its welded...corrugated hose has a less density metal than the inlet and outlet of the radiator and engine block. As the coolant heats up the hose will expand quicker and maY ALLOW LEAKS TO OCCUR FASTER....Like GTPDAD said find a temporary fix like stainless or galvanized until the new part arrives...i used to manufacture stainless steel braided hose and some of the guys at the shop used to put it in their cars...it has to be welded....if done right it will last forever
