    I am looking for either a NAPA part number, any other part number, or source for a Water Pump By Pass Hose for either a 225 or 231. I have found at least three different one that look like they may work in NAPA's site. Summit has a Gooodyear part #63726, and a Summit #GTR-63726 that looks correct, but I do not want to play hit and miss.

    FWIW, I just use a piece of heater hose. Have been for 14 years (yes, I've replaced it more than once in that time..)

    NAPA part number is 7333.

    That is what I have been attempting to do, but the hose seems to pinch. So that is why I want to find a molded one.

    Thank You, I'll look at that part number, also thought a 7447 might work.

    The port in the water pump is small. A small kink in the hose will hurt nothing. If you get the length exactly right, a piece of 5/8 heater hose will work with no kinks.

    The part from NAPA will probably need a minor trim to keep from kinking.
