1.6 Water bypass metal pipe
-
Hello, I am looking for a replacement water bypass pipe for the 1.6. It is the metal pipe that connects to the heater return and then runs along the front of the engine behind the heatshield to the water pump distribution unit. Mine has corroded away at the point where the O ring goes into the joint at the water pump end. I'd like to replace the whole pipe if I can find one. Any offers?

I think that you are going to be lucky finding one of those ,you could give eBay a look and set a search up ,is it isomething that you could manufacture yourself? Parts are so hard to find these days ,I was extremely lucky to get a used rear caliper from Italy recently,I am still looking for another one .

@mushman You are right, I was offered one from a scrappy in Birmingham but it didn't look great in his picture and he wanted £135 for it!! I have now manufactured a suitable insert to replace the corroded part and it seems to be working fine!!
