Sierra 18-70935 Molded Hose - Thermostat Housing to Starboard Exhaust Manifold, Replaces 32-806856
The Sierra 18-70935 is a molded rubber hose engineered to connect the thermostat housing to the starboard manifold on engines equipped with a 2 piece exhaust manifold. It is built as a direct replacement for OEM number 32-806856 and is designed to meet or exceed the performance of the original equipment part it replaces. The hose is molded in white and constructed from a durable plastic-composite material intended to withstand the heat, vibration, and harsh marine environment found in an engine compartment.
Each package includes one molded hose. It is intended for MerCruiser stern drive applications across a wide range of engine families, including 200 2bbl, 230 4bbl, 260, 350 Mag, 4.3L, 5.0L, and 5.7L configurations in various carbureted, EFI, TBI, and MPI variants, as well as SKI and Black Scorpion applications. Because this hose is designated for the starboard side thermostat housing to manifold connection, buyers should confirm this fitment against their engine's exhaust manifold configuration before ordering; a separate hose (Sierra 18-70938) is used for the oil cooler to thermostat housing connection and is not interchangeable with this part.
