    Radiator hose diameter, please?

    Has anyone changed to mishimoto radiator hoses for instance, that can tell me their internal diameter? If they differ by model, I am looking at the 2013 Abarth, and if by hose, I am concerned with a section of a lower hose where it would travel upward. I have an engine heater left over from the past and might like to install it when I do new hoses, which I haven't aquired yet.

    Thanks kindly.

    I have the mishimoto rad hoses, whats your question? They are oem replacement so they should be the same size.
    I never got around to installing the one side I can get a measurement when I get home if you want.

      I am looking for the hose’s internal diameter. The heater I have is for a 1 3/4l” hose

      I appreciate the offer to look, and its no hurry. At your convenience if you are able.

      I am nusrsing broken ribs, but can try and slide under and measure the lower radiator spout as well. Thought someone might know it already. Thank you much.

          I did look at the mishimoto and mopar sites for sizes to no avail. Thanks for the Amazon info. I reckon that is enough. I sure appreciate it. I will need to obtain a smaller engine heater unit, so will do that once I get a hose set. I appreciate the help! Thanks for finding and responding with the sizes.

          Sonicsdaman is da man!
