Where can I get this T connector?
Does anyone have a part# for it? Went to Dealer today and it doesn't show up on their PET. It was the EOD so they will continue looking tomorrow. I need it ASAP.

head to your neighborhood home depot or lowes et al, hardware store and look
in specialty fastener aisle for nylon t-barb connectors. just be sure you measure
the hose ID first.
as far as I know, that is just a vacuum hose thing so as long as the connector
passes air, you should be fine. natch, if anyone feels different, jump in and
post.

Thanks guys! BTW, anyone have a picture of the pressure port gasket. The one I got from the dealer this afternoon does not look like the one I removed yesterday. He said I only had two choices, one was hollow and the other filled in but with two holes.

It's only available with the upper rad hose I believe, you get the upper rad hose, with the hose that runs to the T, and the hoses that run to the coolant reservoir, for a big stack of $$$. I used a vacuum T and it's held up fine for a few years now. A brass T would be a stronger piece than the plastic one I found handy, I'd go that route.
