Skubaskott Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I am almost done with the swap but I'm at a bit of a loss as to what to do with the coolant hose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_freddo Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Try the factory L series unit or rotate the thermostat housing 180*, make an elbow piece to marry to the factory hose and use a small piece of hose for the gap between the adaptor piece and the thermostat housing. The factory L series upper hose would be way easier though! Cheers Bennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steptoe Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I found that EA82 non XT run very similar top and bottom hoses In order to keep reduced inventory suppliers often list same part number for top and bottom And I think the number belongs to the bottom hose I ran this EA82 spfi manifold in myEA81 Brumby and used bottom EA82 hose, possibly cut 10 mm off engine side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm having trouble with the coil not getting power which in turn causes the fuel pump to not get power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
