Can I buy the little fitting that is on the top of the radiator on the driver side where the hose to the expansion tank connects seperate? If so, from where?
If so, how do I get the reminents on the broken piece out of the radiator, without pulling the radiator?
Thanks

Yes, the fitting is available from many sources, I got mine through Vertex...
I just stuck an small easyout into mine to remove the portion that broke off inside... that job was a piece of cake

I got the pieces out with a stubby screwdriver. I heated the blade up with a torch and carefully stuck it in there so I didn't riun the threads in the radiator. Then just unscrew.

Careful when you tighten the part down into the radiator. It takes a big wrench because the size of the piece, so its easy to put too much torque on it. Dont ask how I know.
