I need a part number or diagram for the small plastic coolant return hose that comes out of the back of the metal pipe by the thermostat and goes under the supercharger to the coolant reservoir.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

 

Is it:

MNC4582AC Bleed to Expansion Tank hose?

 

Hi vector

Oops - Update I meant the hose next to the blue arrow in the photo image below. The plastic hose goes from the thermostat housing to the expansion tank in the XJ8 (MNC4582AC). On the XJR the plastic hose goes from the Coolant Outlet pipe to the expansion tank (MNC4582BC).

I looked the bleed hoses in the JEPC (Jaguar Electronic Parts Catalog). That is where I found these part numbers.

I think it is the bleed hose (the hose other end attaches to the side of the expansion tank).
For the XJR it is part# MNC4582BC $14.13 at Gaudin Jaguar Parts (online).

The bleed hose for the XJ8 is part# MNC4582AC
Here is a jpec of the bleed hose for the XJ8 - marked with blue arrow (I copied the photo image from another thread on this forum).

Jim,
Thanks for the reply.

Actually its the one I marked with red arrows in your pic. They replaced it with a plain rubber hose and clamps, which is exactly what I did when I couldn't find a replacement Saturday evening.

I think it will be fine the way it is. Your thoughts?

 

Hi Vector
I corrected post# 3. I meant to say the other hose next to the blue arrow. We agree on the hose needed (goes from your XJR coolant outler pipe to the side of the expansion tank).
