Gates 80-88 Ford Mustang 4-Cyl. 2.3L Upper Molded Coolant Hose

Gates is a well-known name for belts and hoses, and this upper molded coolant hose is built to keep your engine running cool. This hose is specifically shaped to fit the 2.3L 4-cylinder engine found in a range of vehicles, including the Ford Mustang, Mercury Capri, and Ford Thunderbird from the late 70s through the late 80s. It connects your engine's thermostat housing to the radiator, allowing coolant to circulate and prevent overheating.

This hose is molded to match the original factory routing, which makes installation much simpler than trying to bend and fit a universal hose. It’s made from a rubber compound that resists heat and coolant degradation, so you can expect it to hold up over time. Replacing a cracked or leaking coolant hose is important for preventing engine damage, and this direct-fit hose makes the job straightforward.
