my t fitting going to the watter line started to leak today upon further inspection there was a hole in it any one know where i can source one till then my car is down i tried to call todd no answer so todd if you see this give me a call i need some new ones asap

 

try some auto store like autozone.. there's a lot you can find online im just not sure which waterline you have..

pics?

 

just went to ace its not a standard size not 1/4 not 3/8 not 5/16ths so i odnt know what to do its the braided lines i dont know im poed for sure my car is stranded till i get this piece

 

try an industrial shop.. so the hole is in the fitting? that sounds weird lol

 

no its at the brazed joint the fitting is a home made solution its a 1/4 barbed fitting t with one side cut off and a steel -6 an fitting it has a crack cause the solder didnt bond to the steel due to the wrong solder the other one is leaking to not as bad i found this out when i overheated and found a puddle of water under my car thismorning

 

talked to todd he was like what? guess there is a first time for every thing. lol hope i get some new one soon

 

you should have just used tape to seal the hole up temporarily

head to a local machine shop and ask if they know of a hose shop because yours blew out.

 

i know of one they are closed on the weekends though and tape wouldnt have fixed this hole it was a very steady drip im going to jb weld them so i still have my car to drive till i go buy new ones todd was kinda shaky over text no real solution was thought out so i guess ill just take care of it but got to wait till tomorrow im havinng to make my own with a 4 an t and a 4 to 6 an adapter then 2 4 and to 1/4 or 3/8s barbed fittings going to be about 30 bucks a piece

 

use pantyhose

 

lol i like diapers myself oh yeah lol i was going to go on a cruize today to

 

im serious! pantyhose wrapped around a line would keep it from dripping for a while

gosh.

just like when people ask me how i find tranny leaks and i say

use babypowder.

 

lol jb weld will work :-D I used it to fix my radiator that i put a screwdrive through when pulling the motor. Just make sure to clean the surface well, scuff it up, and use regular jb - not the jb quik stuff - than let it sit overnight
