What is this called?

I'm sorry, but I'm not sure if this is the right place for this question. But, I recently discorvered a leak in a hose. Now, the only problem is, I'm not sure what's the name of it specifically. Here's a picture of this, it looks to me like a hose that connects to a tubing to a water jacket. I'm not sure though.




Thanks.

I couldn't tell you what it's called, but it's just vacuum tubing. You should be able to pick it up a foot or two (and just cut to size) at NAPA, Autozone, Advance, etc. or even some hardware stores.

I'm sure someone here can tell you the size just by looking at it...

I think it's 5/8. Just take it off and go to the parts store and they will cut you a new piece.

Thanks. This also carries radiator fluid any type of tubing that's specific for that? Also, I really appreciate this.

Just tell them you need another piece of heater hose in that length. Chances are they can only sell it certain lengths so you will have to cut how much you need off.

NOOOOO! That is not Vaccum hose. That is called a heater hose. It is a small section of Heater hose not vaccum hose which is not rated for high tempture exposure for long periods of time. That line runs from your t-stat housing to your heater core and to your lower radiator hose.
