After a few months the plastic manifold broke.

Cheap thermal insulation. Really a very cheap option but it fits my Ford Explorer 2007 4.6 V8 heat exchanger tube replacement.

Pros
  • Engine cooling and air conditioning
Cons
  • Nothing included

Not perfect, but the value is strong.

Advantages - price and steel tee with screw terminals. This section has a slightly larger hose than the standard. Make sure the hose assembly does not come into contact with the exhaust manifold. I used two zip ties although I think they include a latch for that. I paid 83€ and was satisfied. $75 is a great price. I think Ford charges over $200 and you still get a plastic t-shirt - that'll probably let you down while you're here. Relax, this job is pretty easy. Don't worry, be happy.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Long delivery time

I confirmed Dorman and agreed to the incorrect tubing size. I can't understand why Revain sells such faulty products when people prescribe. Returning to the US is…
