U-Shaped hose

Hey guys, I was just wondering what the name of the small U shaped hose is that is right next to the upper radiator hose on the VG engine. It carries coolant, and mine has a leak so I wanna take a trip down to the auto store to get a replacement. I just don't wanna go in not knowing what the hell it is called

Thanks a lot

not sure what the technical name for it is but I do know the one you are talking about...maybe a crossover hose or something...it connects at the end of the radiator hose down to just above the water pump. You will not get an exact hose like that from a regular parts place I dont think. You will probably have to get it from a nissan dealer.

Nissan name: Hose-Water
Nissan part: 14055-85E00 list $10.83 (this is for the 89-91 SE and 89-94 GXE)

I'd just go down to your local dealer and pick it up. You might want to change the upper and lower radiator hoses also if you haven't done those in awhile.
