I want to replace my water heat hose, both to the bathroom water heater and to the driver’s compartment heater.
Who can tell me the length needed for both the 5/8” and the 3/4” hoses.

Thanks,

Emery,

So many years ago, one a page here. I said that hose to my water heater was gone and I asked the same question.
Someone said, "Just buy the box."
I ended up with about 5 feet left over. But, I do have a 23.

Emery,

It's been a while, but like Matt, I just bought "the box". I think it was 50' of 5/8 and 7' or 8' of 3/4.

My water heater hoses were going across the engine to the right of the carb. On the valve cover. Didn't like that much. So when I replaced my hoses. I got some hose hangers. Then mounted them to the underside of the plywood floor next to the engine hatch. Simple. And away from the A/C compressor/hoses, and any V belts. Did this with some other items. Really cleaned up the engine compartment. And away from moving around on a running engine.

I did the same thing. I mounted two tees to the bottom of the passenger side floor and ran the 6 hoses from there.
