Product Line Details

Gates Molded Heater Hose products are shaped to follow original equipment routing, helping maintain proper hose alignment in compact engine layouts. Part number 19885 is part of this molded hose line and is sized for applications that require a 3/4-inch heater hose with a specific formed bend.

Detailed Description

Gates 19885 is a molded heater hose designed for heater outlet service on 2003-2007 Honda Accord and 2004-2008 Acura TSX applications. The molded profile helps the hose follow the factory path in smaller, tighter-fitting engine compartments, while the EPDM construction supports coolant transfer in automotive, water, and air systems. This part cross-references Continental 64609 and BBB Industries 11885 for the same application.

Common Replacement Reasons

• Cracked or hardened heater hose material
• Coolant seepage at the hose bend or connection point
• Incorrect routing from a previous straight-hose repair
• Restricted heater flow caused by hose collapse or deformation
• Service replacement for a molded heater outlet hose on Honda Accord or Acura TSX

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the hose routing, end diameter, and centerline length before installation. This hose is intended for heater outlet use on the listed vehicles, so compare the molded shape to the original part before removal. Inspect adjoining clamps, fittings, and mating tubes for wear or corrosion, and confirm the cooling system is properly filled and bled after service.

Quality Assurance

Gates manufactures this molded heater hose as an OEM-style replacement built to match factory fitment requirements for the listed Honda Accord and Acura TSX applications. The EPDM construction and molded design support consistent routing and service in the cooling system.
