Gates 21960 upper radiator coolant hose for the 1991-1994 Ford Ranger V6 3.0L and other vehicles carries engine coolant between the engine and the radiator.
Coolant leaking at the hose, a soft or collapsed feel or cracks in the cover can mean an upper hose is wearing out. Before you replace it, look it over with the engine off and cool, clamp ends included, because a leak can start at a clamp or the radiator neck instead.
It fits the 1991-1994 Ford Ranger V6 3.0L and the 1994 Mazda B3000 V6 3.0L, and each takes one.
