closed water cooling hose

[B.matt]

I am having trouble finding the cooling hose that goes from the heat exchanger to the water ciculating pump(anti freeze side of sys.). The eninge is a 5.7 l mercruiser with a 4 barrel carb, closed water colling sytem with a sea strainer and raw water pump. (The data tag is missing from the block so I don't know the serial #) as far as I can tell it a 1996 engine. I have tried quite a few places to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

Does this look like your system? If so, the hose is 32-861059.

That hose does look like it might work. That is not the system on the boat though. A mechanic did say it looked like a mercruiser system. The diagram for a G serial # does look more like my system but that hose is no longer made. Would they just stop making hoses?

I probably should mention that the hose on there now is a generic, ribbed flex type hose.

Re: closed water cooling hose

I finally found the hose needed. It is on the closed cooling for a 5.7l ski engine. But just my luck theh p/n 32-91030 is no longer available.
