    I have a Blue Wave Blue Point,or vice versa ,Im fairly new (8 mnths) to this mount. It has been losing antifreeze and takes a bit(30 min) to warm up on colder days. I have changed the thermostat ,hoses and now have found a leak in the steel braided line that runs coolant from the heat exchange on the bottom to the top of the engine. Any idea where I can locate hoses or lines of this sort. The engine is made by Kubota and have had little success getting parts that are correct from them. Being a high pressure ,high temp line I was wondering if anyone knew if I could use a gas line from a dryer or anything like that to substitute until the correct part came in. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am mainly a WTR,ASD,MOLD Cert. Tech but do cleaning on the side also and have been fighting this truckmount since our repairman left our company and been doing the repairs ourselves. Thanks.

    There is alot of places that you can run into that will custom make hoses of all kinds on the spot that arent Carpet cleaning supplys.
    just google it.
