June 10, 20178 yr I was working on my 86 Carbd GL and i broke managed to break this hose off. Im looking to buy a replacement but im not sure what part number it is or even what system its a part of. The hose was under my Carb and leaked a pinkish liquid when it broke off. Please let me know if you know what this hose is for and what part number i should be looking for. all help is appreciated, Thanks!
June 10, 20178 yr the fluid looks like power steering but not if sure thats what the hose would go to though
June 10, 20178 yr That's a coolant line. Just use generic coolant hose. You must have something like Toyota coolant pink antifreeze in the car rather than the usual green. GD

Maybe because its at the top of the engine??
June 10, 20178 yr Take that line to Autozone should be able to get the same size from the bulk roll. I am not 100% sure but that looks like a coolant line that keeps the carb from freezing up in cold weather.
June 10, 20178 yr Yes and you are probably a little low on coolant because it's been leaking perhaps? Check all other hoses and top off system. GD

Nah, the hose in question is a air vent that keeps the coolant transfer port in the top center of the engine from forming a bubble and blocking flow. It needs to be there. The carb base warming hose is not so nessecary, and can be removed......it is just below drivers side of the carb and runs back over the manifold to the heater hose supply.
