Water Pump 3

 

Connections to the Water pump and the radiator are using formed rubber pipe, some of which require trimming to size. The pipe from the cooling reservoir that sits on top of the engine has a 90 degree elbow and feeds down through the body of the engine to a stainless steel elbow. From here a preformed pipe hooks around the engine frame to the upper inlet of the water radiator.

Adjustable hose clips will secure the ends of the pipes to complete the cooling system
