Keep coolant moving through the tight confines of a modern engine bay with the Gates Molded Heater Hose 18073, a factory-molded, OEM-style small I.D. coolant hose. It's a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1987-1990 Dodge Dakota, 2000 Ford Windstar and 1993 Chevrolet P30 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine-level fitment. Gates catalogs this molded hose for routings including valve-to-intake-manifold, heater-to-intake-manifold, pipe-to-water-pump, heater-to-tee, and pipe-1-to-intake-manifold positions.

Features:

  • Molded to fit: factory-molded, OEM-style hose shaped for today's smaller, tighter-fitting engine compartments; can be used for coolant, water and air applications, and is also approved for marine use.
  • EPDM construction: an EPDM tube, synthetic fiber knit reinforcement, and EPDM cover, engineered to resist electrochemical degradation — the leading cause of hose failure.
  • Rated: meets SAE 20R3 Type EC Class D-1 and D-2 specifications, with a temperature range of -40°F to 275°F (-40°C to 135°C).
  • Built similar to OEM specifications with all the quality features of Gates molded coolant hose.

Caution: do not use for fuel or oil transfer applications. Gates recommends replacing the hose clamps each time a new coolant hose is installed.
