Gates 98-03 Chevrolet S Series Pickup 4-Cyl. 2.2L Upper Molded Coolant Hose

When you're tackling a cooling system job on your 1998-2003 Chevrolet S10 with the 2.2L 4-cylinder engine, replacing the upper radiator hose is a common and important step. This molded hose from Gates is shaped specifically to fit your truck, ensuring it connects your engine's water pump to the radiator without any kinks or strain.

Gates has been a well-known name in cooling system parts for a long time, and this hose is built to handle the heat and pressure cycles your engine experiences. It's made from materials that resist degradation from coolant and engine heat, which helps prevent leaks and premature failure. Because it's a molded hose, it follows the factory routing precisely, making installation straightforward and ensuring it won't rub against other components.

This hose is designed for the 2.2L engine found in the S10, GMC Sonoma, and Isuzu Hombre from those years. Make sure you have the correct coolant type and consider replacing the lower hose and thermostat at the same time for a complete cooling system refresh.
