Not unless they tell you.

This hose is 12 inches long, not 13 as they say. I need 13 for it to work. The Gates label on the hose says 12", no idea why the description says 13.

Pros
  • Belts, hoses and pulleys
Cons
  • Some little things

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Does not fit directly - hoses

This hose was advertised to fit 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
  • hoses
Cons
  • operating speed
