Metal Coolant line for 88GT 2.8

Scanman88GT · Post by **Scanman88GT** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 11:12 pm

I've noticed that the metal coolant line that runs along the inner fender on the passenger side of my car between the filler neck and what I guess would be the heater core is kind of rusted wher it bends right before the firewall.

I assume that this takes another bend and then goes to one side of the heater core. Can anyone give me the part # for this? My '88GT is a 2.8 w/AC. I've been keeping an eye on this metal line, but it would be nice to have a part # and price as a Plan B here, in case this one should spring a leak.

Thanks,
Scanman88GT

Rubber hose is usually the fix for that metal line when it rusts out. OR you could just buy some metal line and bend it to your needs. That part I think is no longer available thru GM, you'd have to settle for a salvage one if you decide to not use rubber hose.

FYI-- In case anyone needs one of these Coolant Bypass Pipes, GMParts Direct has them for $35.33. The part # is 10065583.This is for an '88 2.8 with AC and manual tranny. I'm not sure if all Beretta years/models used the same one or not.

That's a good price. A friend of mine replaced the one in his '90 Base a few years ago and it cost him over $100 from the dealer IIRC.
