Description

Keep coolant moving between the radiator and engine with the Gates Radiator Coolant Hose 21026, an upper radiator hose that carries hot coolant on the pressurized side of the cooling system. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1969-1975 Ford E-100 Econoline, the 1969-1974 Ford E-200 and E-300 Econoline, the 1975 Ford E-150, E-250 and E-350 Econoline, the 1986-1992 Ford Taurus, and the 1986-1995 Mercury Sable.

Upper radiator hose: routes coolant between the radiator's upper connection and the engine as part of the cooling circuit.
Direct-fit replacement: a direct-fit replacement for the listed Ford and Mercury applications.
Signs it may need replacing: coolant leaks, visible cracks, bulging, or soft/spongy spots along the hose.

Over years of heat cycling, radiator hoses harden, swell, or split and can weep coolant. If a failed upper hose is the cause of your coolant loss, replacing it with the 21026 restores a sealed path for coolant flow. Diagnose the source of any leak or overheating before replacing, since other cooling-system parts can share these symptoms.
