Hello I was online at the Fiero Store and was looking to by the four main coolant Hose but the all list w/o A/C! My Fiero does have A/C I would like to change out all the hose that connect to the engine Bypass, heater etc... But right know just the main four. Auto Zone only has the top radiator hose the the rest are flex type. Also is the a good place to buy a Heavy duty water pump?

Define heavy duty... Seems to me the water pump I put in my 84 was metal impellers... is there something more "heavy duty" than that? And I think the question you were asking was "is there a difference in the hoses for an 88 with AC and the hoses for an 88 without AC?"

Ok, gurus correct me if I am wrong, but the coolant lines (like much of this car) were identical no matter the options.

Don't weigh the decision to buy on what I just wrote. I just wanted to give your post a bump, and make someone correct me or tell me
I am correct. If I am wrong, incorrect information will make everyone jump on this post.

The guys at the Fiero store are very pleasant and can also answer your questions if you are unsure.I think the number is 1-800-FieroGT.

Good Luck,
Myke

All molded hoses for 84 Fiero

The heater hoses for an 88 with A/C are not available. Several people have reported here that they used off the shelf hoses made for other vehicles but no one has come up with a part number.

Dayco does make some universal 90° hoses that might work:

edit: For the water pump, I used a new Bosch #97055 (very well made).

Before you start replacing the pump, check https://www.fiero.nl/forum/A...040223-2-039015.html

On those belt numbers.... see my cave. 660 length is often not long enough for ac cars no matter what the books say. I'm not the only one using 665 or 670 belts to get the tensioner into range. (It's a tolerance stacking problem.)
