Good To Know
Q: How do I know this hose fits my specific 165 engine? A: Check the serial number and compare the existing hose length and fitting angles to the 32-86036 and 18-2103 reference numbers before replacement.
Q: Is a bleed procedure required after installing this hose? A: Yes, purge air from the system after installation to prevent spongy trim response and possible pump cavitation.
Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
