Anyone needing one of these tubes that goes from the heater connection,around the back of the block and into the inlet side of the water pump,forget about buying one from Ford.Went to Harrigan Ford this afternoon to get one,and they are now listed as ONR!This may even apply to some of the EB series Falcons as well,as my XG ute has the EBII motor in it.If you find a new,grab it,or you may have to fabricate one.

Cheers,

Hi These are available Non gen from Burson's and Repco. No stress Regards TPVM.

Well this will apply to all the E series engines that are non BBM as well, e.g. EA/EB/ED.

Just tried Repco in Wollongong,and no luck with the pipe.Bloke I spoke to said they didn't carry them at all,and suggested that I fabricate one,which would be my last resort.Local Ford spare parts said just get a good 2nd hand one(a no brainer that one,as it would probably be in the same condition as mine).Just wish we had a Bursons spare parts up here in NSW.Anyone know if there are any Bursons spare parts shop in NSW?
Looks like I'll have to make one from stainless steel tube,as it looks to be an impossible thing to change with all the inlet manifold & other junk in the way.I'd love to do it before the head goes back on to save any future hassles.

Cheers,
Kevin.
