RobinTR6 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 2002 Mk 6 Fiesta :Heater matrix is leaking badly so had to dump car. Trying to avoid getting a tow by bypassing the matrix. Can I disconnect hoses at bulkhead and jointogether with a bit of copper or plastic pipe. If this is doable whats the pipe size of the rubber heater hoses so I can get something to connect them together. I'm hoping I can dio this roadside and then refill with coolant and drive her home..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stef123 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I have seen it done before on other cars with copper pipe. The hose size will be 5/8" if a copper pipe fits inside it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
