- Fits: 1988-1991 Ford Tempo 4-cylinder 2.3L and other vehicles
- Material: aluminum and rubber
- Condition: New
Weak cooling, oily residue at the fittings or a visibly damaged hose can mean the suction hose needs replacing. Weak cooling alone does not prove the hose is at fault, because a low charge from a leak elsewhere in the system gives a similar result. A car has one suction line, so one hose is all it takes.
