Morning All

Just wondered if anyone has had any experience with flexible or bespoke radiator hoses.

My bottom hose which connects to my electric water pump is weeping a bit. The current set up is using the standard hose attached to a small extension so it reaches the pump.

The hose has been on there for many years and been fine, but due to a recent engine removaI had to disconnect and now have a small leak, no wonder really give the age of the hose.

I thought I may replace with one hose rather than two, so now not sure the best and cost effective option...

1. Buy a long enough flexible hose... but this may prove difficult due to the angle changes or

2. Find a company to make me a bespoke one... but is anyone aware of any good ones?

has anyone had any experience of flexible or bespoke hoses?

Hi Dave

I did think of getting silicone ones, are they fairly flexible?.. not had much experience with them.
