Right, a quick question to those with superior VR4 knowledge. :scholar:

Can someone please confirm the top radiator hose size. Be sure to say whether it's internal or external size being given. /help

As an aside to that, it is the top hose that the water temp sender should be placed in isn't it? :speechles

Cheers

its 38mm ID (the hose)
so you will need a 38mm OD fitting,

yes its the top hose,

the guage will only start working once the thermostat opens when the car is warmed up fully and lets hot water into the radiator
