Did you hear about the Spanish father of twins? He called his first son Jose. And his second son Hose B! (groan).
Speaking of which I need a new one of these... Can anyone tells me what it's called - or even better a part number - and where I can get one? The Bongo Shop? It's the hose that goes from the cylinder head above the starter motor towards the rear heater via a metal T-piece. The existing one's burst under the guardianship of a PO and been bodged up - possibly causing the original melting of the head.
Cheers... It's the hose in the middle of this photo...

Also why did I take a picture of this...? ...other than because my friendly Bongo specialist said "Here, take a picture of this!". Is it the top end of the aforementioned hose? ...Hose C perhaps?

Have a look
HERE to find the part number.
Most hoses are obtainable from Mazda dealers, the shop stocks quite a few too.
