How many are there? Putting my motor back together and gonna order all new hoses. Now that I'm redoing everything should I just convert it to regular Antifreeze instead of the DexCool? Anything need to be changed?

 

Total 11 hoses [including TB hoses]
The Goodyear Hi Miler kit is a good option.. even though it is missing one hose[10 in the kit]
The missing hose can be dealt with with a piece of 3/4 heater hose..

 

Yea thats a good kit.... Kinda expensive though, but not for what you get with it. Carquest has the funky throttle body hose for $34 and the other main hose for $13. Then all the other hoses can be fabricated. You can obviously do it for cheaper than the goodyear kit, but that is the easiest way.

 

Where do you guys get the Goodyear Kit from??? Summit? How much is it?

 

The Goodyear Kit is just over $100 with shipping.

 

From where????

 

anyone????? summit????

 

I think the Goodyear hoses are all blue instead of black if that matters any.

Is there any type of dye you can put in the coolant and then use a black light so you can see where the leak is coming from? I have a leak that I cant find.

 

You guys fabricate your own hoses???

 

If you change your hoses, double clamp all of them. They may not on idle, but at 3-4K that'when it could start leaking

 

Although, it is a noteable precaution. It is not necessary. Get them on the right way first time and you will be fine.

 

I think clear hoses would be awesome. Someone should make them

I haven't heard of many people switching to silicone. I'm not sure what the Goodyear kit is made from, but I know it is high quality.

 

I just did the Goodyear Hi Mileage kit on my car.

Summit Part # GTR-5006 for $99.99 S&H $18.40 (must think their gmpartsdirect )

 

I thought that summit had just a 8.45 handling charge and free shipping?
Did you by chance order 2nd Day Air? that's 9.95 extra [total 18.40]
I also have a Summit catalog here that lists them for 94.69[price good til 10/31/03]

Goodyear Hi Miler hose set is EPDM with Nomex reinforcement [not silicone].
Also be aware that 93-4 and 95-7 hose routing[and a few hoses] are different, though the 94-3 can be 'upgraded' to 95-7 configuration.
