Hi,

Hopefully going to be attempting my cambelt/waterpump tomorrow and will need a new radiator bottom hose clip as mine has all but disintegrated.

Problem;

I've taken my other car to work today and forget to measure the Punto one before i left!

Can anyone give me a rough diameter of the bottom radiator hose?

I've guessed and bought some 35-50mm clips just now but if anyone could confirm before i head home that'd be great (in case i need to go buy the next size up/down).

Thanks
 
Thank you!

Good shout as well checking the radiator specs on ebay - i didn't think of doing that.

:)
 
Hoses have quick release fittings to radiator, don't be tempted to remove these, mine leaked badly when reconnected and I had to source new o rings Which are generally only available with the hose and fitting. Much easier to just pull hose off QR fitting and use jubilee clips.
