Stonejag 10 Posted January 15, 2016 Sorry for the title, I couldn't resist :lol: This is an aluminium coolant transfer pipe (aka "crack pipe") for a VR6 made by Mason Tech in the USA. Fits all models (AAA or ABV) and prevents the fragile plastic OEM unit from ruining your drive by suddenly failing and weeing coolant everywhere. Before fitment I added a brass gas tap from my local plumber's merchant for easy coolant changes. Just push a short length of hose on the end, stick the other end in a bucket and twist the tap - no more coolant-soaked armpits! It ran on my engine like this for nearly 5 years and never leaked once - if it'll hold pressurised natural gas it will certainly continue to hold coolant for many years. Easy to replace with a drain plug though, if preferred. Solid used condition with no cracks or dents. I've given it a quick once-over but to a perfectionist it could use a polish...no point really, as it's hidden behind the radiator under the scuttle panel and will get instantly covered in road dirt anyway. I've also fitted new OEM-spec o-rings for peace of mind. Be sure to carefully clean the flange on the engine with a flap disk and apply a little grease to prevent the (usually rusted) edge from snagging the seals as you install it - a new thermostat housing probably wouldn't hurt Absolute bargain at £40 including UK postage.
