Review on πŸ”§ Gates 25474 Vulco-Flex II Coolant Hose with Enhanced Flexibility by Hector Watkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Does not fit directly onto belts, hoses and pulleys

This hose was advertised as fitting my RX-7. Although the length and diameter are about the same as a standard hose, this hose does not bend in the same way, causing the hose to kink. This kink prevents the coolant from flowing like a drain, causing the engine to starve, leading to overheating. I had to spend another ten dollars and go to the dealer.

Pros
  • Improved sealing surface for improved leak resistance
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
