Hello Would someone tell me where I can find the cross reference that lists VW hose p/n to a NAPA equivalent. I'm looking for the hose between the thermostat housing and the Tee piece (feeds the radiator). The hose exploded! I replaced the reservoir tank cover under the belief that it is supposed to offer limited resistance to the flow of coolant out of the tank while it more easily allows coolant back in from the overflow tank. Is this correct? The cap that I removed had very little resistance to drawing air in or out.
