Perkins 4-154 Parts Online ?

Can anyone reccomend a vendor for Perkins 4-154 parts online? Right now I need to replace some cooling hoses on the Freshwater side. Specifically there is a 180* elbow hose that comes off the fw pump, looks to be standard automotive type radiator hose 1 5/8" diameter. The hose goes to a pipe headed to the oil cooler.There is another section of this same size hose I want to replace there that is straight maybe 3" long. I was thinking of checking automotive parts stores for radiator hose but would also like to find a good vendor for Perkins parts in the likelyhood of future repairs and to obtain spare parts.

Ask for Sherry Moon (if she isn't the one that answers the phone).

Below is what Sherry had to say to my request for the hoses and spare parts inventory... Anyone else have a source for 4-154 parts?



Not to discourage your purchase, but the hoses are no longer available. Also the head gaskets are no longer, as well as many of the bolt on and internal components.

I might suggest removing the hoses and taking to your local auto parts store.

Good Luck.

So did you end up finding a head gasket? So far I've only been able to find the entire kit or custom gasket makers, both cost alot more than one gasket would

Re: Perkins 4-154 Parts Online ?

We have just completed a re-man on a Perkins 4.154. Parts are very difficult to find. We got our incomplete rebuild "kit" from a firm in Michigan, $1,932 and poor service. I will never buy from them again. PM me for name. A variation of this engine was used in Mazda pickups a few years back. The head gasket we got was marked Mazda.
We are parting out 2 of the 4.154's and will not rebuild them any more, as well as no more Perkins 4.107's, we are parting out 3 of these. PM for details.
