Oil cooler hoses - I've sprung a leak!

[Highwaylass]

Pirtek Cambridge did them for me - good blokes!

[Dave Guest]

Thanks for the info. I'll give them a ring

Ask for Kevin

[Dave Guest]

Many thanks. Just a quick one... I see how the hoses fit the engine but is there some sort of fitting to fit on the spigot on the oil rad also which branch is Kevin at. I greatly appreciate all the help as I've already waisted time and money on the wrong hoses.
Cheers Dave

Is it the standard 2CV oil cooler or a Mocal unit? I've used plumbing compression fittings on the Citroen cooler after cutting off the original fittings.

I must learn to read previous posts before posting my own..Cambridge.
I have the standard 2cv cooler with cut off pipe so 10mm plumbing compression fitting does sound like the way to go.
Thanks for the help

Or you can use pneumatic compression fittings they obtainable straight or elbow compression to compression or compression to hose tail or banjo, pretty much anything. just Google Enots they are sold by many air and hydraulic equipment suppliers.
The pictures show 10mm OD elbows connecting chopped off aluminium cooler pipes to 10mm copper central heating pipe.

Yes - pneumatic fittings would have a much greater range of adapters and they can be had in brass, nickel or stainless.

I had my car cooler upgraded and new pipes and connectors fitted by Kevin at Pirtek Cambridge branch.
Outstanding job. High recommended. Now Max just fly!!!

Thanks for the device
