What's this hose?

[Howrare]

Got a leaky hose so ordered up a kit from Racetech. But the leaking hose isn't in it. Comes out the OS wing by the rad bottom hose. Goes along the cross member with the swirl pot hose, before running down a chassis member under the NS exhaust manifold. Hope you can tell me where it goes.

Looks like the feed to the carbon canister to get rid of the excess vapours. Some people have removed their canisters and so I have just taken mine out. And will fit a breather for the tank just after the rollover valve.

Yup, carbon canister. I removed mine too.

Coolant leak must be coming from somewhere else then. Hmm. I'll change all the hoses and see what happens.

Your leak could well be coming from the radiator itself.

They do not tend to last too long unless the support springing is improved to reduce the flexing that causes a leak generally at the bottom corners.
