have a 94 z28 and i have sprung a leak on the rubber elbow that is attached with the big metal clamp to the metal bleeder pipe...anyone know what to ask for at the parts house or is this a dealer item...any help would be greatly appreciated...

 

May want to give a better description because I can't figure out what you're talking about...

 

thats a major hose to replace. I recommend getting the Goodyear Hi-Miler blue hose kit from summit. I think the part number is: GTR-5006

That one hose from the dealer is like $170, so I'd be cheaper to just buy all of the hoses. It sucks but the goodyear are suppose to be "10 times stronger than the stock hoses" and "lasts 5 to 10 times longer than regular hoses."

 

The hoses are dealer only, when mine sprung a leak right near the bleeder i used a saw blade and cut the press fitting off and used a regular hose clamp, works fine.

 

It's dealer only for the pre pressed fitting pipe, but you can get all of the rubber hoses in the hi-miler kit and use hose clamps. I think it would be a bad idea to install just one replacement hose.

 

I have the goodyear blue but not installed yet. Will do when I rebuild. I do have to say that my 95 with 160k+ has yet to have a hose leak. Just lucky I guess

 

when I replaced all of my hoses, I just used regular generic heater hose tubing and cut the ends off the bleeder valve and reused it. cost me nearly nothing and works perfectly.

 

thanks for all the replies...that's what i did...used a dremel tool on the pressure clamp then got the elbow piece at the chevy place...had replaced all the hoses but that one...
