Leaky hose caused major engine damage

Using this hose, our team found that it leaked after just a few months of use. Unfortunately, we didn't catch it in time and it caused significant damage to our engine. The pro is that it was easy to install. The con is that it didn't last long and caused expensive repairs. Do not recommend.

Pros
  • Durable and long-lasting material
Cons
  • Some customers have reported difficulty with installation.

Buy a Goodyear tube.

I didn't like the fit of this hose and it punctured after a few months. I bought a Goodyear hose to replace the Gates hose, it fits better and overall I feel Goodyear makes a better product.

Pros
  • Great fit for me
Cons
  • -

Perfect Factory Fit

This hose was purchased a year newer than the Firebird but it fits the Pontiac 400 engine in the Firebird 70, the hose named is usually a small radiator hose or 6 cylinder hose. You need extra flex to get around the instep arm. Buy recommendation.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Weight
