I have a 91 accord 2.2 AT with AC and CA car, with just over 200K miles. just completed all belts, seals and waterpump change and it went smooth as silk thanks to the writeups on this forum.

Now one of the heater hoses has a pin hole leak in it, and I want to replace all rubber that carries coolant, including the 3 heater hoses and the 2 radiator hoses. My local dealer said there were about 5 more bypass hoses? Would someone please offer photos or instruction as to the location of these other hoses? My luck the one I miss will be the one that blows in heavy traffic far, far, from home.

Looking forward to the responses, also recommendations on where to buy from....thanks

I would suggest downloading the 91 Accord manual form hondahookup.com. This will provide all the hoses and other good information to assist your work. The other hoses are on the intake manifold and throttle body.

I know that replacing hoses makes sense from a general POV, however unless you use Honda hoses, the hoses you install may be worse than the OEM hoses in place. I don't know why Honda rubber is so much better than aftermarket but it is. This extends to vacuum lines, CV jt boots, etc. Honda rubber is good stuff. So if you want long term performance, go OEM on the hoses.

good luck

 

definately get the hoses from the dealer,, some of theses are molded , curved hoses and using other hoses may result in a kinkage and blockage ,,call the dealer and ask for a coolant hose kit,, it icludes all the bypass hoses, heater + radiator hoses

 

I spoke to Felix at hondapartswarehouse.com and he is unaware of any such kit there at Majestic Honda. He said if it were possable to get a part number then he could do a search that way. I sent him the PDF file of the cooling system...thanks BTW...to view the hoses. He said he would have to look into it. Any way ....anyone might have that or be able to give the the part number for the coolant hose KIT?

POLeazzzzzzeeeeee?


thank you
