Product Details

This Dayco curved radiator hose is part of the Curved Radiator Hose line, a cooling-hose range focused on replacement fit and material compatibility for passenger vehicles. The EPDM rubber construction is selected for coolant exposure, while the single I.D. hose layout supports lower radiator hose applications where a formed bend is required. Dayco 71604 is a direct-fit style option for 1992-2000 Honda Civic lower radiator hose service, 1993-1997 Honda Civic del Sol lower radiator hose service, and 1997-2000 Acura EL lower radiator hose service. This part cross-references Honda 19502-P08-000 and 19502-P2A-000 for the same application.
