    Had a 626 years ago in Ireland, same issues with hoses and the water pump went in the end - old mazdas had terrible cooling, but i loved that 626

    Many thanks for video. Glad it wasn't too serious. I've got my diesel Heater installed now apart from I need to drill big hole for air intake in passengers bit under seat. Rather than in engine compartment. Ps had same water leak but mine was near where metal T joint. Cheers from old George

    For got to ask. Where is the washer water tank for the rear wiper. The wiper wipes rear window but washer squirty doesn't work. Cannot hear any buzzing from pump etc. If there is a pump. ?????? Cheers from George

    • @LS10Works
      @LS10Works  Год назад

      I'm pretty sure it's fed from the same water tank as the front jets. Mine didn't spray at first, but I let run the pump for a while, and eventually, it sprayed. Maybe the line went dry. 🤔

      It definitely uses the same tank and two separate pumps at the bottom. According to the Facebook groups, the rear pump is difficult to get hold of, but a front pump can be adapted. I do know that the rear washer tube runs up the passenger A pillar and along the headlining on the passenger side to the back.

      Absolutely. They're great fun. Just keep an eye on the mechanical aspects and you'll have a great time 😁

    Hey mate thanks for the videos, do you know what the long metal pipe that you put the new piece of hose on to feeds?
    I only ask cos mine has no hose attached and I assumed it was a disused aircon pipe

    • @LS10Works
      @LS10Works  Год назад

      The replacement hose we fitted is the coolant line to the thermostat housing. The pipe that goes towards the rear of the van from there goes to the rear heating heater matrix. Some people blank these off if they leak or don't use the rear heating.. 😁

  • @LonicGheshu
    @LonicGheshu Год назад

    Was the split pipe installed with the self bleed kit or an original? I've installed a coolant alarm, but can't find the courage to install the self bleed kit I've got sitting there.

    • @LS10Works
      @LS10Works  Год назад

      It was a 28 Yr old original hose which split on mine.
      Coolant alarm is on the list for me now 🤣

    Have you got a low coolant alarm, if not they are a must have early warning safety feature 👍

    • @LS10Works

      Nope. Definitely wish I had one now. But it's something I'm going to fit 😁
