Gates HVAC Heater Hose P/N:18460
Keep coolant moving between the radiator and reservoir with the Gates heater hose 12391, a factory-molded, OEM-style replacement engineered for today's smaller, tighter-fitting engine compartments. It installs as a direct-fit replacement on the 2008-2012 Honda Accord (see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level fitment), routing in the radiator-to-reservoir position. This is a Gates molded heater hose built with the same quality construction as the brand's molded coolant hose line and made similar to OEM specifications.
Do not use this hose for fuel or oil transfer. Gates recommends installing new hose clamps each time a coolant hose is replaced. This heater hose carries hot coolant to the heater core so the cabin heating system works as intended.
