Author	Subject: Top rad hose
Niall Seasoned Pro Location: Epsom Registered: 06 Jun 2012 Posts: 1,941 Status: Offline	Post #1 Currently rebuilding my spare engine and am going to do away with the water/oil heat exchanger as i will be using a oil cooler anyway. Did peugeot ever do a top rad hose without the spur that goes to the exchanger and if so, what models did it come on? Or alternatively, does a top hose off of any other 306 fit?

However, make sure you keep the original top hose somewhere safe as these are no longer available from Pug. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft" Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone

Cheers So seeing as i have 4 of them top hoses in the shed, i'd best keep some aside and sell the rest for peugeot prices
