I have a minor coolant leak,the piece i need is a 90 degree elbow that hooks to a hose right off the air plenum.the hose looks to be in good shape,but the 90 turns and won't tighten down into the plenum.

I may be wrong on this, but I thought the tubes were pressed in with a bit of sealant. If the tube is still good then pop it out, clean it and put it back with a bit of sealant. Im not sure what sealant the factory used. Hopefully someone can verify. Good lucK!

Crush fitting. Pull it out, use a little JB weld on it or some kind of epoxy and hope it doesn't blow out at 7,200 RPM.

BTW, the pipe is discontinued.
